With the municipal election in the books, thoughts are turning to the 2020 election.  A Presidential Preference Primary for one or both major political parties will be held in April.  Connecticut has a closed voting system so only registered voters of the party holding a Primary may vote in that party’s Primary.  The Kent Registrar of Voters says people interested in voting in the Democratic or Republican primary must affiliate with that party.  The deadline to register is January 28th. Voters who are registered Unaffiliated may join a party up to noon the day before the Primary, which will be held April 28th.
