# [#]John,

Connecticut just made requesting an absentee ballot easier! You can now request your absentee ballot through a brand new online portal>> [[link removed]]

While you are still welcome to request an absentee ballot via a mail application or by visiting your town clerk, the online portal will offer a more convenient option for many.

If you are a registered voter with a Connecticut driver’s license, you can request your absentee ballot by phone, computer, or tablet on the new webpage.

As always, you are able to vote by absentee ballot if you are unable to go to a polling place on Election Day: *
Because
you
are
actively
serving
in
the
military,
*
Your
religious
beliefs
prevent
you
from
secular
activities
including
voting
on
Election
Day,
and/or
*
Your
duties
as
an
election
official
prevent
you
from
voting
on
Election
Day.

As of 2022, you are ALSO able to vote by absentee ballot if you are unable to go to a polling place on Election Day: *
Because
of
absence
from
your
town
for
a
period
of
time
on
Election
Day,
because
of
a
sickness,
or
because
of
a
disability. *
This
includes
voters
who
are
unable
to
go
to
their
polling
place
because
of
a
sickness
or
physical
disability
of
another
person,
or
because
of
the
continued
presence
of
a
sickness,
such
as
the
COVID-19
virus.



Remember absentee ballots must be received by town clerks no later than 8 p.m. on Election Day, November 8th, 2022 , to be counted. It is not sufficient for an absentee ballot to be postmarked by Election Day.

Even if requesting your ballot with the new online portal, be sure to allow for ample time for the ballot to arrive to you by mail, and make a plan to return your ballot by 8 p.m. on Election Day!

We are excited to see more ways for people to engage in the voting process because it only strengthens our democracy.
