Voting Rights for Military Families

September 14, 2021

Today is the Groton Democratic primary. Registered Democrats will have the opportunity to select the nine candidates that will appear on the Democratic slate for Groton Town Council for the general election in November. 

I have received several inquiries about voter eligibility for military spouses.  Per an amendment to the Military Spouse Residency Relief Act (MSRRA) passed in 2018, spouses may vote and pay taxes in their active-duty spouse’s state of legal residence.

If you would like to register to vote in Connecticut, visit the Secretary of the State's website for a registration form and more information.
