Seven Connecticut ballots are up for grabs as voters choose in national, state and local races.
Down-ballot races that matter in today’s voting states
There is one competitive district in Connecticut:
- Connecticut’s 5th District: Rep. Jahana Hayes has represented this long-held Democratic district since 2019, but it includes some of the state’s reddest areas, including Wolcott, Thomaston and Watertown counties. Hayes is facing former Connecticut State Sen. George Logan, who ran for the same district unsuccessfully in the midterms. It depends on the D in the Fox News Power Rankings.
