The 2000 Connecticut Democratic presidential primary took place on March 7, 2000, as one of 15 states and one territory holding primaries on the same day, known as Super Tuesday for the Democratic Party presidential primaries for the 2000 presidential election. The Connecticut primary is a closed primary, with the state awarding 67 delegates, of which 54 are pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the results of the primary.

Vice president Al Gore won the primary with 55% of the vote, winning 30 delegates, while senator Bill Bradley caught a relevant amount of delegates one of the last times in the primary cycle, receiving 41% and 24 delegates, while the Uncommitted ballot option took the remaining 3% of the vote. Lyndon LaRouche, Jr. was again not on the ballot in this contest, making it one of the few contests during the primaries that he did not have ballot access, and made Connecticut the only other Super Tuesday contest that LaRouche did not make the ballot for, the other being Georgia.
