Berlin 2024 Election Results: Polls Close, Votes Being Counted
BERLIN, CT — The polls have closed, and now we wait for the results to come in through the night and likely into Wednesday morning for several key races.
One Berlin state representative is already guaranteed a new, two-year term in office — State Rep. Donna Veach, R-Berlin, ran unopposed.
All eyes, of course, are on the presidential race between main party candidates Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald J. Trump Jr. Beyond the presidential race, U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy, D-CT, is seeking reelection to a new six-year term and is being challenged by Matthew M. Corey, Justin C. Paglino, and Robert Finley Hyde.
Residents also voted for their local representative in the U.S. Congress, and their local state representative and senators in the General Assembly in Hartford.
Tuesday night's vote totals will also determine whether Connecticut will allow each person to vote by absentee ballot in future elections.
