Windsor Locks and East Windsor are in the running for the community that best represents the state's "still revolutionary" motto in an online poll.

The Connecticut Office of Tourism is holding the poll on its Facebook page. Voting is open through May 15.

"Connecticut has always been a magnet for dreamers and doers – a home for original ideas, fresh thinking and new experiences," the poll states. "It is the people, places and spaces in Connecticut that make it still revolutionary. Join us and vote for your favorite still revolutionary town."

The winning town will receive prizes such as advertising and promotional support from the Office of Tourism and an honorary plaque. 

People may cast one vote a day, and each vote counts toward a drawing for a four-night vacation package in the Connecticut River Valley. The poll asks voters to give their favorite community and favorite destination within that community. 

As of Friday, Niantic was first, followed by Mystic in second place and Putnam in third.
