Connecticut to Hold Municipal Primaries Today

Today is Primary Day in Connecticut.

Several cities and towns across the state are holding primaries, including 15 municipalities holding primaries in mayoral or first selectman races.

Hartford, New Haven and Bridgeport all have a mayor's race this year. But Secretary of the State Denise Merrill said even in a contested primary race, she only expects a 20-30 percent voter turnout.

In the August 2018 Democratic primary statewide turnout was 28.59 percent. In Hartford turnout was 19.63 percent and in New Haven, 26.88 percent.

In the same year's Republican Primary, statewide turnout was 31.8 percent, with 17.12 percent turnout in Hartford and 24.73 percent turnout in New Haven.
