House Joint Resolution No. 32 proposes an amendment to the Connecticut State Constitution that would allow individuals who are sixteen years old to apply for admission as electors. Upon reaching the age of eighteen, these individuals would then be eligible to vote. The amendment seeks to modify Article thirty-first of the amendments to the Constitution, enabling citizens who have attained the age of sixteen to preregister as electors, with the stipulation that they must be qualified and follow the application process as prescribed by law.

The resolution outlines that any citizen who is not yet eighteen but will be by the time of a regular election may also vote in primary elections, provided they have applied for admission as an elector. The proposed amendment will be presented to the next session of the General Assembly or to the electors during the general election on November 3, 2026. The ballot will ask voters whether they support the amendment allowing sixteen-year-olds to preregister to vote, effective upon their eighteenth birthday.
