News 8 is your local election headquarters for Connecticut's Nov. 4, 2025, municipal general election. We've compiled a list of everything you need to know before you cast your ballot.

Secretary of the State Stephanie Thomas emphasized civic engagement in a speech at the Aurora Luminary Celebration this week.

This year, early voting for municipal elections begins Monday, offering all registered voters two weeks to cast ballots for their local mayors, selectmen, council members, board of education members and more ahead of Election Day on Nov. 4.

The early voting allows anyone registered to vote to cast their ballots in-person on a day of their choosing prior to Election Day, Nov. 4 — including on two separate weekends — creating more convenience for voters and encouraging greater participation in elections, Lamont and Secretary of the State Stephanie Thomas said in a joint news release.

Early voting so far included a new polling site at Southern Connecticut State University and outreach at UConn Stamford.

Early voting in Connecticut's local elections starts on Monday, Oct. 20. Here's what you need to know if you want to cast your ballot before Nov. 2.

The early voting and absentee ballots collected between Monday morning and Wednesday morning have been tallied.

Election Day is a little over two weeks away now. Nov. 4 is when cities and towns all across the state will be choosing things like their local council members, Board of Finance, mayors and first selectmen.
