Thank you for your voters’ guide for the 2015 Hartford city elections. I have consulted websites for the city Town Clerk and the state Secretary of the State and had found nothing like sample ballots for the city races though it is less than 2 weeks before the election. Your site had the first complete list I could find anywhere. Thank you for posting your list as a service to Hartford’ s citizens.
