Voter Registration in Connecticut Libraries
Pursuant to the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 and Conn. Gen. Stats. Secs. 9-23n and 9-23o libraries in the State of Connecticut which are open to the public are required to offer voter registration services year-round. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 required certain public agencies to provide this service and the Connecticut General Assembly extended this requirement to public libraries. Although some groups are involved in voter registration on a voluntary basis, please be aware that libraries are required by law to offer voter registration. Effective January 1, 2003, libraries and other voter registration agencies also are required to give a receipt upon submission of voter registration application. Receipt forms were distributed to public libraries by the Office of the Secretary of State prior to January 2003. This requirement was passed as part of Public Act 02-83.
