Voters

AARP Connecticut – advocates for age 50+ Connecticut residents and their families – works with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to support legislation and issues that make our state a great place to live for people of all ages.
Connecticut: Find upcoming election dates, registration deadlines and options for voting, such as absentee voting, early voting or voting with a disability.
AARP volunteers are contacting Connecticut voters to help ensure they’re aware of recent changes to election laws, including moving up the presidential primary date from the last Tuesday in April to the first Tuesday. Voters can also now cast ballots early in person.
AARP’s purpose is to empower people to choose how they live as they age. Many policy changes enacted this legislative session will help Connecticut residents do just that.
AARP Connecticut State Director Nora Duncan provided the following statement in response to the biennial budget Governor Lamont proposed today:
Many important races will be decided in the Nov. 8 election, including the offices of the governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general, as well as seats in the U.S. and Connecticut Senate and House.
Connecticut’s Nov. 8 general election includes federal races for the U.S. House and Senate, plus contests for the state legislature, governor, attorney general and several other offices.
For the Connecticut primaries on Tuesday, Aug. 9, and the general election on Tuesday, Nov. 8, it will be easier to vote due to new laws that have expanded eligibility for absentee voting to include sickness from COVID-19.
AARP’s mission is to empower people to choose how they live as they age, and an important part of choosing how we live as we age is being able to choose where we live as we age. Most older adults want to remain in their own home and community as they age, but financial barriers and limited service options can make this difficult. We were pleased that the Connecticut legislature passed a state budget and several pieces of legislation that will support older adults who wish to age in place.
AARP Connecticut issued the following comment in response to the passage of House Bill 5262 in the Senate:
