Three special elections were held in Connecticut's at-large congressional district in 1793 to fill vacancies caused by the resignation, prior to the start of the 3rd Congress, of three representatives-elect.
First special election
The first special election was held on April 8, 1793, after Jonathan Sturges (P) declined to serve the term for which he'd been elected
| Candidate | Party | Votes | Percent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uriah Tracy | Pro-Administration | 2,197 | 49.8% |
| Zephaniah Swift | Pro-Administration | 817 | 18.5% |
| Asher Miller | 708 | 16.1% | |
| Jonathan Ingersoll | Pro-Administration | 436 | 9.9% |
| Tapping Reeve | 252 | 5.7% |
Second special election
Benjamin Huntington (P) also resigned his seat before the start of Congress and was replaced by Jonathan Ingersoll in a special election held on September 16, 1793.
Third special election
A pair of openings lead to a two-seat special election: 1. Member-elect Jonathan Ingersoll declined to serve from the September special election; and 2. Member-elect Stephen M. Mitchell declined to serve from the general election when he was appointed to the U.S. Senate.
A third election was held for their replacements, with the top two winning seats in the 3rd Congress: Joshua Coit (Pro-Administration) and Zephaniah Swift (Pro-Administration).

 Joshua Coit | Pro-Administration | 2,448 | 35.7% |
