Connecticut Statutes § 9-55 Printing of complete enrollment lists and lists of unaffiliated electors

⤴ Up to Chapter 143: Electors: Qualifications and Admission

Statute Text

(a) The registrars of voters shall cause to be printed at least once during the calendar year a complete enrollment list and shall make such list available to the public upon request.
(b) If a political party authorizes unaffiliated electors to vote in a primary, under section 9-431 , and a notice of primary is published, the registrars shall cause a list of all unaffiliated electors eligible to vote in the primary to be printed before the commencement of the period of early voting at such primary. If unaffiliated electors are authorized to vote in only one party's primary and are authorized to vote for all offices to be contested at the primary, the registrars may print the list of unaffiliated electors in combination with such party's enrollment list, indicating party affiliation where applicable.
(c) If the legislative body of the municipality votes to eliminate separate enrollment lists under section 9-54 and:
(1) Notices of primaries are published for two parties to be held on the same day, the registrars of voters shall print complete separate enrollment lists and, if unaffiliated electors are authorized to vote in the primary, the registrars of voters shall print a separate list of unaffiliated electors as provided in subsection (b) of this section; or
(2) A notice of primary is published for one party in which unaffiliated electors are authorized to vote for some but not all offices to be contested at the primary, the registrars of voters shall print a complete separate enrollment list and a separate list of unaffiliated electors as provided in subsection (b) of this section; or
(3) A notice of primary is published for only one party and (A) unaffiliated electors are not authorized to vote, or (B) unaffiliated electors are authorized to vote for all offices to be contested at the primary, a registry list may be used as a checklist at the primary and the registrars of voters shall print a supplementary or updated list indicating those electors who have become eligible to vote in the primary since the printing of the registry list.
(d) Whenever a list is required by this section to be printed, a supplement to such list shall be compiled by the registrars of voters of persons who after such date and prior to twelve o'clock noon of the last business day before the primary become eligible to vote in such primary. The registrars of voters may combine such separate compilation with the foregoing printed list by reprinting the list or incorporating the updated list.
(e) The registrars of voters shall make available for public use such list in the office of the registrars of voters until the printing of the next completed enrollment list; and they shall deliver to the chairman of the town committee of each political party copies of each such list for each voting district in the town. Whenever the registrars of voters are not in their office, such list shall be available at another municipal office. Upon request, the registrars of voters shall give one complete set of such lists to each candidate for nomination for any office or for election as a town committee member. The registrars of voters shall deliver a sufficient number of copies thereof to the moderator of each primary. No petition brought under the provisions of section 9-63 shall operate to delay the completion and printing of such lists. If the petition of any elector is granted after any such list has been completed, the registrars of voters or assistant registrars of voters, as the case may be, shall issue to such elector a certificate showing that the elector is entitled to the privileges accompanying enrollment in the political party named in the elector's petition.
