A whopping 74.94% of registered voters in West Hartford came out to vote last year - and this was no coincidence. The hard work of the registrars and clerk in this town had a direct impact on voter turnout, and this victory is thanks to them. Congrats, West Hartford! @Cantorshari — PolitiTweet.org

This is why Secretaries of State are so important, and why maintaining voter roles shouldn't be used for partisan political purposes! I am fighting every day to ensure that every eligible voter in Connecticut can conveniently register, and every registered voter can easily vote. https://t.co/IwOdnkA5E9 — PolitiTweet.org
