Connecticut ballots list a candidate once for each party that nominated them; Vote Book shows each person once with all their party lines.
Darien is split among several legislative districts (8 ballot versions), so you will see only one State Senate and one State House race; check yours at Connecticut voter registration lookup (Secretary of the State).
Darien's ballot also elects the Board of Education (vote for up to two) and Representative Town Meeting members by district. Those columns span several cells on the sample ballot and Vote Book could not read them reliably, so they are left off; see the official sample ballot linked above.
One candidate per seat on the list (write-ins may still be possible).
