2024 Presidential Primary Results

Ballots were emailed to all Green Party members whose email addresses are on file with the party, and it was available for download on our website. Paper ballots were mailed to those who requested them. Ballots had to be returned by US mail or hand-delivered at our April 19 fundraiser event. They were separated from all identifying information before counting. A process of Ranked Choice Voting/Single Transferable Vote was used to determine apportionment of delegates. Write-in votes and "None of the Above" were also counted.

Green Presidential Primary Balloting

Results are in for the 2024 major party presidential primaries (no surprises there, but 22% of Republicans voted against Trump, and 15% of Democrats voted against Biden). What about the Green presidential primary? If you are a Green Party member, you can still vote in our Presidential Preference Poll. Three recognized candidates are on the ballot, and we will count votes for write-in candidates and "None of the Above." As usual, GP internal elections are run by Ranked Choice Voting, and the results will determine proportional allocation of CT state delegates to the party's national convention (scheduled for August 15-18, online).

To participate, download your ballot and mail it in. Ballots must be received by April 26.

Speakers:
Kathy Flaherty, Executive Director, Connecticut Legal Rights Project, is a disability rights activist and attorney

On the two year anniversary of Governor Lamont’s first executive order on Covid-19, join us for a discussion of the pandemic’s impact on high risk groups - including disabled people, people with compromised immune systems, and people in prisons and other institutions.

We will examine the deadly failure of ableist public health policy, and consider what might have been done and what still must be done to create policies that protect the well-being of everyone in the community.
