Can I register to vote in Connecticut?
<p>I'm attending college in Connecticut, where I've lived on-campus for approximately 3 months. I'm from out-of-state, however, and reside in Connecticut only during the school year. Am I eligible to vote in Connecticut? The online registration form asks me to confirm that I'm a 'resident' before continuing. I've spent a considerable amount of time searching relevant resources and the internet, and there is a considerable amount of conflicting information out there. I've tried speaking with voter registration representatives, to no avail.</p>

<h1>Yes, you can register in Connecticut.</h1>
<p>Connecticut previously limited voting eligibility to &quot;permanent&quot; residents, but it later changed that to limit it to people with at least year's worth of residency, and then six months' of residency.</p>
<p>Under current law, though, a voter need only be a <a href="https://www.cga.ct.gov/current/pub/chap_143.htm#sec_9-12" rel="nofollow noreferrer">&quot;bona fide&quot; resident of &quot;some town&quot;</a> in Connecticut. This means you need only to have legitimately moved into the city with some actual intent to stay, even if not forever.</p>
<p>The deadline is tomorrow, so <a href="https://voterregistration.ct.gov/OLVR/welcome.do" rel="nofollow noreferrer">register now</a>.</p>
