"Wednesday is the deadline to register to vote in the Sept. 8 state primary. 
Clerk’s offices at city and town halls will be open from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. Wednesday for voter registration. Voters can also register on line at sec.state.ma.us/OVR, in person at Registry of Motor Vehicles offices or by mail by downloading a form available on the secretary of state’s website and sending it to or dropping it off at the local city or town hall. Mail-in forms must be postmarked by Wednesday for a voter to be eligible for the primary. 
Absentee ballots for the primary are available for voters who will be out of town on primary day or who have medical conditions or religious beliefs that will prevent them from going to the polls in person."
