CONNECTICUT, USA — With a record number of new voters on Connecticut's rolls since the last presidential election, Connecticut officials are urging people not to be scared off by long lines at the polls on Tuesday.
They noted Wednesday that 6-foot social distancing rules could make things look worse than they really are, urging people to be patient.
They also reminded voters they'll still be allowed to vote if they're in line by 8 p.m. when the polls officially close.
The president of the state registrars association says she believes her colleagues will be able to handle the lines pretty quickly.
