Voting registration deadline nears

From the State of CT mail-in voter registration form:

"Registration deadlines for new voters -- primary: your application must be postmarked by the 5th day before a primary (or received by your Registrar of Voters or a voter registration agency by the 5th day before a primary). You may apply in person to your town clerk or registrar until 12:00 noon on the last business day before a primary."

Some of the wording (such as 5th day vs. last business day... is the 5th day the 5th business day?) seems a bit ambiguous in relation to mailing in a party change. But changing your registration in person seems very explicit. You need to register as an R or a D by noon on Monday Aug 7.

Contact details for the Registrars in the three towns of the 89th are:

Bethany - Will Brinton (R)
Marion Ash (D)

Cheshire - Richard Abbate (R)
Aleta Looker (D)

Prospect - Kathleen Vander Eyk (R)
Katherine S. Blinstrubas (D)

phone numbers:
Bethany Town Hall 393-2100
Cheshire Registrars office 271-6680
Prospect Town Hall 758-4461

If you're unaffiliated, I hope you'll consider registering with one of the two major parties. And if you choose to register as a Republican, I hope I can have your support next Tuesday!
