In Connecticut, in-person registration is allowed on Election Day. But remember, you can't just show up to the polls and register. That needs to be done at a designated location, which is typically your city's town hall.

And if you're voting by absentee ballot, your ballot needs to be received by the close of the polls at 8 p.m. on Election Day.

You can put the absentee ballot in a drop box at your town hall, or mail it to the town clerk.
