New Haven 2021 Local Elections: Candidates, Polling Places, Hours

NEW HAVEN, CT — New Haveners head to the polls on Nov. 2 to cast votes for the municipal election. Contested races are Mayor, City Clerk, Board of Education, and Board of Alders.

Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Nov. 2.

Voters who are in line before 8 p.m. will be able to vote even after the deadline passes. You can find your poll location at the Secretary of the State website by inputting your information.
