We are rounding up the results of top-of-the-ticket races around the state and linking to local news stories on those races. 

There are at least elections for 32 mayors and 93 first selectmen around the state, but 30 of these elections are a done deal because only one candidate is running.

We’re also compiling results from the secretary of the state’s online election night reporting system, which includes the full slate for each town, but reporting by the towns is optional, so it’s likely that not all towns will report data in a timely manner.

Her awards include the best-of-show Theodore A. Driscoll Investigative Award from the Connecticut Society of Professional Journalists in 2019 for reporting on inadequate inmate health care, first-place for investigative reporting from the New England Newspaper and Press Association in 2020 for reporting on housing segregation, and two first-place awards from the National Education Writers Association in 2012. She was selected for a prestigious, year-long Propublica Local Reporting Network grant in 2019, exploring a range of affordable and low-income housing issues. Before joining CT Mirror, Jacqueline was a reporter, online editor and website developer for The Washington Post Co.’s Maryland newspaper chains.
