Statement from Connecticut Secretary of the State Stephanie Thomas on Misinformation Circulating About the Date of Election Day

We are aware of misinformation circulating on social media, posted by the FBI's New Haven office, incorrectly stating that Election Day is Wednesday.

Do not believe it. Election Day is today, Tuesday, November 3.

Polls across Connecticut are open until 8 p.m., and anyone in line by 8 p.m. will be allowed to vote.

Don't let incorrect information or confusion keep you from making your voice heard today.
