Update: New Haven Election Results 2021: Elicker Reelected Mayor

NEW HAVEN, CT —The polls closed in New Haven and voters reelected Justin Elicker as mayor.

Elicker defeated Republican John Carlson — the first Republican mayoral candidate in 14 years — by 9,936 to 1,638 votes, the New Haven Independent reported.

Elicker made brief remarks after the ballots were counted.

Yet to come are votes for City Clerk, Board of Alders and Board of Education.

As of 10 a.m. Wednesday morning, the Secretary of State said official results statewide have not yet been displayed due to a technical issue.

“The election night reporting system has a technical issue affecting the display of results, but all of the results are tallied and entered into the election night reporting system locally. All of the results that have been entered thus far are safely and securely stored on the system, but are not currently being displayed. The third-party vendor that manages the reporting system is working right now to display the results as soon as possible. If anyone is interested in getting specific results while we work to fix the issue, please email elections@ct.gov and we will get you what you are looking for as soon as we can.”
