Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026.

Where to Vote on Election Day

This year there is only one polling place on Election Day — the Wilton High School Field House (395 Danbury Rd.). Voters in all three Wilton districts will vote at the high school.

Polls are open from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m.

Parking for voters with disabilities will be marked at the polling place. For those unable to leave their vehicles due to a temporary physical incapacity, curbside voting is available upon request at each polling place.

Voter Eligibility

To be eligible to vote in Wilton, you must be:

  • A U.S. citizen
  • A resident of Wilton
  • At least 17 years of age, as long as you will turn 18 years old by Election Day
  • If previously convicted of a felony, have completed confinement subject to any additional restrictions for election-related offenses

Voter Registration

To make sure you are registered to vote, visit the CT Secretary of the State website for Voter registration Lookup.

While the deadline to register by mail, at the DMV, or online has passed, anyone who is not registered to vote but wants to do so can still register and vote the same day — through Same Day Voter Registration.

Bring proof of identity and proof of residence in Wilton, and allow extra time for registration and processing.

  • During EARLY VOTING: Register and vote every day Early Voting is open at the Wilton High School Clune Center polling place.
  • ELECTION DAY, Tuesday, Nov. 3: Register to vote on Election Day at Wilton Town Hall (238 Danbury Rd.) from 6 a.m.-8 p.m.

Voter Identification

Voters will be asked to show ID to vote in Connecticut. Identification is any pre-printed form of ID that shows name and address, signature, or photograph (e.g.  Social Security card, driver’s license, school ID, etc.).

Certain first-time voters who registered by mail and did not previously provide the required identification must present either a current, valid photo ID showing their name and address or a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck or other government document showing their name and address.

Voters who do not bring ID can still vote — they will be asked to sign an affidavit instead and then vote normally. First-time voters without ID can cast a provisional ballot.

Absentee Ballots

General Guidelines:

Any eligible registered voter may apply for an absentee ballot; no reason is required.

Before an absentee ballot can be issued to the voter, they must complete and return an application to the Wilton Town Clerk’s office. The application can be downloaded from The Office of the Secretary of the State website or the Town of Wilton website; it can also be obtained from the Wilton Town Clerk’s office in person, by mail or by calling 203.563.0106.

Completed applications may be returned to the Wilton Town Clerk in person or deposited in the Official Ballot Drop Box located outside the rear entrance of Town Hall, by mail (Wilton Town Clerk, 238 Danbury Rd., Wilton, CT 06897, phone (203) 563-0106).

Absence or inability to vote in person does not mean that a voter must forfeit the right to vote. Voters are urged to contact the Wilton Town Clerk’s office at 203.563.0106 or the Registrars of Voters Karen Birck and Annalisa Stravato at 203.563.0111.
