Wednesday Is Voter Registration Deadline In Massachusetts

BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts residents who need to register to vote should act quickly.

Wednesday is the final day to register before the Nov. 4 election.

Most city and town halls will be open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Anyone who is a United States citizen, a resident of Massachusetts, and who will be at least 18 years old on or before Election Day is eligible to register.

Voters who have moved to a different community within Massachusetts must register again to be able to vote in their new community.

Voters registering by mail should have their form hand-canceled to ensure it is postmarked before the deadline.

Towns with fewer than 1,500 voters will have registrars available at least from 2 to 4 p.m. and from 7 to 8 p.m. to register voters.
