In 2008 the CT Greens had about twice as many voter registrations as the Libertarians. Now it is the reverse. That -0.01% decline for both the GP and LP since October 2018 is deceptive because of rounding. Looking at the actual numbers, the LP lost 2% of its registered voters and the Greens lost 15%.
Independent party of Conneticut is now a part of the Alliance Party..
In Connecticut, the definition of a major party is that they get 20%+
Of the vote in the previous gubunatorial election, or have 20%+ of the state’s registered voters registered in their party. This decline in voters registered as Rebublican makes them coming closer to being a minor party.
