PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric connector in which a plurality of contactors to be in contact with a circuit board or the like remain in a satisfactory contact state, without being influenced by others. SOLUTION: In the electrical connector held between a circuit board 1 and a LCD 3 and supported by a light transmission plate 2 to electrically connect the circuit board and the LCD, the connector has a plurality of contactors 13 consisting of a conductive elastomer material and a planar holding part 10 for holding the contactors 13 formed in one body. Each contactor 13 is in a cylindrical form with both end sides protruding from the both faces of the holding part, and the protruding part can be elastically in contact with the circuit board and the corresponding circuit part of the LCD.
