What does the Town of Franklin ballot for Nov 5, 2019 look like?

Now that the candidate interviews are posted, we can shift our election preparations to other items in and around the election day itself. If you are not sure of being able to get to the high school, consider voting via absentee ballot.


1 - Absentee ballot

Absentee voting is now available. 

"In order to be eligible to vote by absentee ballot in Massachusetts, a voter must be prevented from voting at their polling place on Election Day, due to:

• Absence from the voter's city or town on Election Day; or
• Physical disability; or
• Religious belief."  (from the Secretary of the Commonwealth's page  https://www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/eleabsentee/absidx.htm)

For those who travel out of Franklin on election day for work (i.e. train to Boston, car to RI or NH), you can vote now or anytime before noon Nov 4 via absentee ballot.

You can visit the Town Clerk's office to vote (similar to the early election voting trialed in 2016).
