AN ACT ALLOWING MUNICIPALITIES TO HOLD MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS IN CONJUNCTION WITH STATE ELECTIONS.

This bill allows municipalities in Connecticut to hold their local elections at the same time as state elections, which currently occur in even-numbered years. Municipal legislative bodies can vote to align their election dates with the state election schedule, potentially reducing voting costs and increasing voter participation by combining ballots. The legislation also adjusts the terms of current elected officials to match the new election schedule and establishes specific start dates for official terms based on when elections are held.
