On Election Day this year, Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2025, Wilton is holding its municipal election. Voters will choose candidates to help our town run by serving on the following town boards and commissions: Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, Board of Education, Planning and Zoning Commission, Board of Assessment Appeals, and Zoning Board of Appeals; as well as Constables.

A municipal election may be the most important kind of election — voting for Wilton residents who will make up the boards and commissions have direct impact on your life in Wilton. But it’s important to remember that each of those individuals running are your fellow Wilton residents and neighbors — and they are volunteers who have stepped forward to put themselves on the line and devote an extraordinary amount of time (all unpaid except for the first selectman) to make Wilton run successfully.

GOOD Morning Wilton wants to make sure Wilton voters are as informed as possible, and this Special Election Issue Voter Guide will help you go to the polls and make the best choices for you.

How to Use this Special Election Issue Voter Guide

We’ve published a lot of information here to help you make informed choices. And readers can always look back to our extensive coverage of the Wilton campaigns on our Main Menu‘s ‘Election 2025’ tab or our ‘News’ tab (above).

Below, you’ll find links to every piece of information you’ll need: profiles of who’s running, background on what the boards and commissions do and explanations what’s at stake. We share video interviews we did with candidates running for the four main boards. We have links to Letters to the Editor your fellow residents have written in support of candidates over the last few weeks, as well as Endorsements the candidates have received. We have clips from the Candidate Debates that GMW sponsored with the Wilton League of Women Voters and the Wilton Library. Plus we have the 4-1-1 on everything you need to know about voting in Wilton — including a sample ballot.

For an explanation of how we cover the elections in the months leading up to Election Day, please refer to our 2025 Election Coverage Guidelines and Policies.

Endorsements

Every Tuesday, we published endorsements that candidates received from outside interest groups, public officials or other notable sources; those were submitted to GMW by candidates — GOOD Morning Wilton does not make candidate endorsements.

Candidate Debates

Every year, GMW co-sponsors candidate debates with the Wilton League of Women Voters and Wilton Library. This year, the Election 2025 debates were held on Wednesday, Oct. 15 — BOS and BOF — and Thursday, Oct. 16 — P&Z and BOE — and were livestreamed on GMW (as well as on our YouTube channel). The video recordings of the debates can be viewed in full, as well as in shorter question-by-question clips.

We’ve also got links to our news coverage of the debates.
