There are 2 options for voting in the April 10 Town Election:

1. VOTE AT THE POLLS – on April 10 at the HW Recreation Center gymnasium, 16 Union St.  Polls are open from 7:00 am – 8:00 pm
2. VOTE BY MAIL – A ballot can be mailed.
   • Last day to request a mailed ballot is Thursday, April 3 at 5:00 pm.
   • The returned mailed ballot must be received at the Town Clerk’s office by Thursday, April 10 at 8:00 pm.  If possible, please return the ballot as soon as possible.  The ballot can be dropped off at the Town drop box at the parking lot of the Senior Center/Council on Aging or at the Clerk’s Office during business hours.  We ask that you avoid dropping the ballot in the mail.  Unfortunately, in prior elections, many ballots have been rejected because they arrived too late. And, please, be sure to sign the envelope before returning it.
   • If you have a mailed ballot, YES you can decide to instead vote in person at the polls.  Do not bring your mailed ballot with you to the polls.
   • NOTE:  If you meet the criteria to vote absentee [absence from the town during Election Day polling hours, disability, or religious beliefs], it is available until 12:00 pm on Wednesday, April 9 by appointment ONLY.  Email [email protected] for an appointment.
