Election 2012: Cheshire Sample Ballot

The 2012 general election is now just three days away and, in preparation for the day, Secretary of the State Denise Merrill announced that all of the sample ballots are viewable online.

So, when Cheshire residents head to the polls, they'll fill out a ballot card like the one above. It includes federal and state elections, as well as three referendum questions:

1. Shall the $750,000 appropriation and bond authorization for the technology reserve fund be approved?
2. Shall the $1,500,000 appropriation and bond authorization for the road repavement program be approved?
3. Shall the $32,150,000 appropriation and bond authorization for upgrades at the Water Pollution Control Plant be approved?

Here's a full list of the sample ballots. The polls open at 6 a.m. and close at 8 p.m.

"Now that we have put all the ballots online, I urge every voter in Connecticut to visit our website and familiarize yourself with the ballot you will be using on Tuesday Nov. 6," Merrill said. "This online feature is a great way to make voting process smoother on Election Day.”
