Early voting begins in New York and New Jersey; Connecticut already underway

NEW YORK (WABC) — With less than two weeks to go before Election Day, early voting is underway across the Tri-State this weekend.

Early voting began Saturday in both New York and New Jersey, while early voting in Connecticut was already underway.

All three states will offer early voting until Sunday, November 3.

Saturday is also the last day to register to vote in the state of New York.

Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont is among those who have already taken advantage of early voting. He cast his ballot Friday morning in Greenwich.

Lamont tried to vote Monday on the first day of Connecticut’s early voting, but instead, he posted a photo of the long line and decided to put it off until Friday.
