Election Day issues
A few local municipalities reported issues with tabulators, including in Ansonia, Greenwich and Torrington, where officials are manually counting ballots.
Hundreds of people, including a large group of Yale University students, came out for same-day voting in New Haven. Voters packed city hall waiting to cast their vote - some even waiting in lines lasting three hours.
The Secretary of the State's Office said Connecticut is slated to get new tabulators for the 2025 election.
