Polls will be open from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 9. To check your polling place, visit http://portal.ct.gov/where-do-i-vote.aspx?polling-location.

Secretary of the State Denise W. Merrill reminds voters to bring acceptable forms of identification to the polls. A driver’s license will suffice in all cases but if a voter does not have a government issued photo ID then a bank statement, utility bill, pay stub or other forms of identification are also acceptable. Voters should go to www.myvote.ct.gov see a complete list of acceptable forms of voter identification.

“Myvote.ct.gov is the one-stop shop for all your voting information. Please check the portal to make sure your registration is up to date and to find your local polling place as well as get any other election information," she said. "And, most important, if your party is holding a primary in your town, don’t forget to vote.”

Members of the public should use the state’s 866-SEEC-INFO hotline or email elections@ct.gov if they encounter any problems at the polls. The hotline and email address will be monitored throughout the day by the State Elections Enforcement Commission and the Secretary of the State’s office.
