Connecticut passed another turnout milestone over the weekend. Through October 24, voters statewide had cast 220,859 votes through all methods, according to the Secretary of the State's daily early-voting release.

Early in-person voting accounts for the bulk of that total: 188,256 early votes had been cast by October 24\. Absentee ballots returned stood at 32,603, out of 63,991 issued.

On October 24 alone, 15,678 people voted early in person across the state. By party registration, the cumulative early-vote totals were 100,003 Democrats, 32,732 Republicans, 53,111 unaffiliated voters, and 2,410 voters registered with other parties. Another 1,488 early voters used same-day registration.

Party registration describes who voted, not how anyone voted. Ballots are secret, and registration figures say nothing about which candidates or positions any voter chose.

The release lists only the ten towns with the most early votes, and Brookfield is not among them. West Hartford leads that list with 4,178 early votes to date, followed by Milford with 3,704 and Norwalk with 3,618\. The statewide figures are framed here as statewide figures; no Brookfield-specific total is published in the release.

The figures are preliminary. Towns report on different schedules, and the Secretary of the State's office revises totals as verification continues, so the cumulative column of the latest release is the figure to use rather than adding daily numbers together.

In Brookfield, early voting continues at Town Hall, Meeting Room 133, 100 Pocono Road, through Sunday, November 1, with extended 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. hours on Tuesday, October 27, and Thursday, October 29.
