Bethel officials remind residents about Nov. election procedures

Bethel First Selectman Matt Knicerkbocker is reminding residents about how the election will be run this year.  He says the polls will still be open for people who want to vote in person on November 3rd, between 6am and 8pm. Voters will be required to wear a mask and there will be strict cleaning and safety protocols in place.  Anyone uncomfortable showing up at a polling location can cast an absentee ballot, by filling out and returning an application for one.  The Bethel Town Clerk has processed over 2800 absentee ballot applications to date and sent out those ballots.  The US Postal Service has assured voters that they are well prepared to handle a high volume of mail at election time. Anyone with a concern though can use the secure ballot box bolted to the walkway near the front steps at the municipal center.  The heavy duty box is under 24-hour per day video surveillance and is triple-locked and checked multiple times per day by Town Clerk staff to ensure absentee ballots are kept in a secure location inside the vault in the clerk's office.
