Connecticut Voters First was founded on a simple principle: Connecticut voters deserve elections that produce majority-supported winners, provide greater voter choice, and strengthen confidence in our democratic process.
What began as a little-known election reform proposal has become a serious and increasingly viable legislative initiative supported by elected officials, municipal leaders, advocacy organizations, and thousands of Connecticut voters.
