Turnout for early voting in Connecticut started a bit slowly with the primaries in April and August of 2024, according to the Office of Registrars in Granby, but turnout took off for the presidential election, with a surprising almost 50 percent of residents voting ahead of Nov. 5 last year.
In prior years, the Drummer’s November issue carried the majority of candidate information. To better serve early voters, the Drummer has invited the Democratic and Republican town committees to submit information about their candidates for the October issue. Letters of support for candidates are also welcomed. The deadline for submitting letters is Sept. 15.
Early voting begins 14 days prior to election day, from Oct. 20 to Nov. 2 at Granby Town Hall. General Election Day voting on Nov. 4 will be at the high school community gym from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m.
