Local, state, federal seats all up for grabs By Laura Hayden This month’s highly anticipated midterm elections will not only determine Connecticut’s highest offices and representation in the state legislature, but the state’s representation in Washington, D.C., as well. All North Central Connecticut ballots will pose the same candidates for statewide contests: Connecticut’s governor and lieutenant governor, U.S. senator, secretary of the state, treasurer, comptroller, and attorney general. All towns will also vote on the same question: Shall the Constitution of the State be amended to permit the General Assembly to provide for early voting? East Windsor and Enfield will each pose an additional question (see Local Contests below). For more information on the statewide and local candidates listed below, go to www.cbia.com/candidatelookup.
