Redistricting Changes Some City Polling Places

Statewide redistricting has altered a couple of poll locations in Middletown, according to the registrar of voters Sandra L. Faraci and Janice A. Gionfriddo. Those who cast ballots in the April and August primaries will again vote in the same locations.

Farm Hill and Bielefield Elementary schools are no longer city polling stations.

Heavy turnout is expected for the Presidential election this Nov. 6, possibly as high at 85 percent, Faraci and Gionfriddo say. “We may have over 18,000 people voting that day and we just want to make sure that everyone gets to the correct location.”

In addition, the city will have two referendum questions on the November ballot.

• “Shall the $37,000,000 appropriation and bond and obligation authorization for the planning, design, acquisition and construction of a force main and inter-municipal pump station in connection with Mattabassett Regionalization Project, pursuant to the ordinance adopted by the Common Council on August 6, 2012, be approved?”
• “Shall the $4,850,000 appropriation and bond authorization for the planning, site improvements, construction and restoration of the Eckersley Hall Building and former St. Sebastian Elementary School for use as a Senior/Community Center, including the removal of the modular building(s) at the Senior/Community Center site and the relocation of new modular building(s) for the Middletown Military Museum, pursuant to the ordinance adopted by the Common Council on August 30, 2012, be approved?”

The next general election for president and vice president, U.S. senator, representatives in Congress, state senator, state representative and registrar of voters is Nov. 6 from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.
