2012 Connecticut General Statutes
Title 7 - Municipalities
Chapter 90 - Town and Other Community Meetings
Section 7-9b - Hours of voting at referenda.
Whenever any municipality conducts a referendum on a day other than a state or local election, the polls shall be open between twelve noon and eight p.m., but any municipality may, any provision of any special act to the contrary notwithstanding, by vote of its legislative body provide that the polls at any such referendum shall open at an earlier hour but not earlier than six a.m.
(1967, P.A. 805, S. 1; 1969, P.A. 3, S. 2; 694, S. 19.)
History: 1969 acts changed poll hours from between “six a.m. and six p.m.” to between “twelve noon and eight p.m.”, removed distinctions between towns and cities and boroughs in voting on poll hours and replaced former option for eight p.m. closing with option for earlier opening.
