Y N Huh?
  • Is CT having problems with our voting machines like other states?

    Did My Vote Really Count on November 4?

    Fall Conference of the League of Women Voters of Connecticut

    Join us as we look at whether our votes counted from two perspectives: at the state level, we will look at election integrity and security with our new voting machines and at the national level, we will explore the National Popular Vote movement which would change the influence of the individual voter and the power of the Electoral College in presidential elections.
