John, ever since Trump supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, Republicans have been working across the country to pass laws making it more difficult to vote.
They’ve succeeded in Georgia and Florida, and they’re focused on Texas next — here in Connecticut we must take action to protect and expand our right to vote.
See our original message regarding the latest developments on implementing no-excuse absentee voting and early voting in Connecticut, then sign our petition to let us know that you plan to support both measures!

Original Message:
John, Connecticut has officially taken the next step toward permanently implementing no-excuse absentee voting in our state:
Days after sending the Early Voting amendment to the 2022 ballot, Connecticut legislators passed a resolution in support of the No-Excuse Absentee Ballot amendment — but CT Republicans took a page out of Mitch McConnell’s playbook and stalled the absentee ballot initiative until 2024 at the earliest.
CT Dems will continue the fight to make sure your voice is heard. If you plan to support permanently implementing no-excuse absentee voting and early voting in Connecticut on upcoming ballots, will you sign our petition to let us know?

Last month, the CT Democratic Party polled our supporters asking if Connecticut should implement early voting and no-excuse absentee voting — 95% of respondents said yes!
John, these results are encouraging, but we know that the GOP will do anything they can to prevent either of these changes from happening. Here’s what one Connecticut resident said in response to our survey:
“All Republicans will most likely oppose it because their goal is voter suppression. Voter fraud is practically non-existent in Connecticut. Their goal is to keep people (Democrats) from voting.”
They’re right — that’s why It’s critical that everyone who supports early voting and no-excuse absentee voting makes their voice heard. Add your name to our petition if you plan to support both of these measures!
Thank you for speaking up,
Connecticut Democrats
