Connecticut Republican Presidential Caucus Slated for April 24, 2012

Connecticut will conduct its Presidential Primary on April 24, 2012. This primary will determine how Connecticut’s delegates will vote at the National Republican Convention. Connecticut is NOT a winner take all state. This makes your vote all the more important.  

Connecticut will have 10 at-large delegates which are divided proportionally among the Presidential candidates who get at least 20% of the total vote. Each Congressional District gets three delegates at the National Convention which go to the Candidate getting the plurality in that Congressional District.

Voters are required to be registered in the Republican Party to vote in the primary. Democrats who wish to vote in the Republican Primary may do so by changing their Party Registration no later than January  24, 2012.  

Unaffiliated voters, sometimes referred to as Independents, who would like to vote in the Connecticut Presidential Primary may do so by changing their registration to Republican up until the day before the Primary. 

Registration changes can be done at the Town Hall at either the Town Clerk’s office or the Registrar’s Office.
