Connections Answer for January 15
Are you still stuck with the puzzle? In that case, the answers to today’s Connections are:
- LIST OF CANDIDATES – Ballot, Roster, Slate, Ticket
- MEDICINE FORMATS – Capsule, Cream, Syrup, Tablet

I started my journey today by getting the Yellow category down. I have little to no experience in elections but I got the category nonetheless. I then moved onto the Blue category and had the medicines under my belt. I take enough supplements so I already know most forms of medicines.
I did not solve the Green category. This was due to a friend who initially was confused himself between a helicopter pad and shield. However, we ended up getting it in the end.
With only four words left, I got the Purple category and finally the NYT Connections for January 15.
