Secretary Merrill Releases Turnout Figures from 2013 Municipal Elections

Statewide Voter Turnout Figure 31.43%; Bridgewater Reported Highest Turnout at 77.39%, Hartford Lowest at 5.21%

Hartford: Secretary of the State Denise Merrill today released voter turnout numbers from the 2013 Municipal Elections which showed that overall, the statewide voter turnout among registered voters in Connecticut was 31.43%.  The town with the highest voter turnout for the municipal offices was Bridgewater, where 77.39% of registered voters cast ballots.  The municipality with the lowest voter turnout was Hartford, where only 5.21% of registered voters cast ballots.  A complete listing of turnout among towns that held elections on November 5, 2013 follows at the end of this news release. 

“Municipal elections usually have lower turnout figures than state or Presidential elections, even though the impact of the decisions made by those elected to local government is huge in the community,” said Secretary Merrill, Connecticut’s chief elections official.  “Many races were decided by just a handful of votes, and we had a number of recounts as a result, which shows once again how important it is to do your civic duty and cast a ballot.  I also want to praise our local election officials for accommodating all of the new voters in Connecticut who used their new right to register and vote on Election Day.  From everything we are hearing Election Day registration went very smoothly in 2013, and we look forward to even more voters being welcomed into the democratic process next year.”

The following reflects numbers reported to the Secretary of the State’s Office.  The column labeled (AB) represents the number of Absentee Ballots counted on Election Day.  The column labeled (EDR) represents the number of Election Day Registration ballots counted.
