Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Ned Lamont signed an Executive Order allowing all registered voters in Connecticut to vote absentee in the August 11, 2020 primary. Secretary of the State Denise Merrill mailed every registered Democrat and Republican in the state an Absentee Ballot Application that they will need to fill out and return in order to obtain an absentee ballot. That application, sent via U.S. Postal Service, included a postage paid return envelope. Beginning July 21, 2020, all voters who requested an absentee ballot will receive the ballots in the mail, which will also include a postage paid return envelope.
The Town of Suffield also has a secure Absentee Ballot Drop Box, located outside the entrance to 61 Ffyler Place, to allow voters to deliver their absentee ballots in person without close personal contact.
Please DO NOT place any other items in the postage paid return envelope or Absentee Ballot Drop Box.
For those who would still like to appear in person to cast their vote, polling locations will remain open, however, the ability to vote absentee will ensure that the democratic process continues safely and securely.
