GUILFORD, CT — The votes have all been counted in Guilford after residents hit the polls Tuesday to make their voices heard.

Voters also weighed in on a ballot question regarding Town Charter revisions in Guilford.

On Election Day, Gov. Ned Lamont, Democrat, received 646,742 votes, and his Republican challenger Ryan Fazio earned 454,488 with about 90 percent of the full vote total, unofficial results show.

U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro (CT-3) was re-elected, along with her fellow Democratic colleagues Luke Bronin (CT-1), Joseph Courtney (CT-2), Jim Himes (CT-4), and Jahana Hayes (CT-5).

Also winning re-election were Democrats Attorney General William Tong, Secretary of State Stephanie Thomas, Treasurer Erick Russell, and Comptroller Sean Scanlon, according to the Secretary of State's website.

Here is how Guilford residents voted in the key races.

(Editor's Note: Some candidates were on the ballot multiple times, which is why you may see two or even three vote totals for a candidate. Also note that several candidates involved multiple towns, and the numbers below reflect Guilford alone. Once full results are in for all towns in those races, we'll note the overall winner. Check back for more updates. These results are still unofficial as of now.)
