VOTING INFORMATION:

All citizens 18 years of age or older can appear personally at  the Town
Clerk's Office to register or call and request a registration form be mailed
to their home.  Once the form is completed, one would then mail or hand
deliver the form back to our office.   Any changes, i.e. marriage or divorce
name change; address change; party change, etc. , can be easily
accomplished.

The Help America Vote Act (HAVA) dictates that for all new voters
who registered by mail only must show  identification to prove they
are the person voting.  Any new voter, registered by mail, can enclose a
clear copy of their license with the registration form, or come into the
Clerk's Office well before the Town  or State Election and show proof of
identification, which would exempt you from doing so on election day.

Acceptable forms of Identification are:

        Massachusetts License or Identification
        Lease or Mortgage with person's name and address
        Letter from you Landlord on his/her letterhead
        Utility bill with your name and address
        Government correspondence
        Bank statement with person's name and address
        Real Estate Taxes with name and address
        Excise Tax with name and address
