Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier announced that Wednesday,
February 10th is the last day to register to vote or change your party
status for the upcoming Presidential Primary. Town Hall will be open from
8:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. on the 10th.
Any Hanover citizen who will be eighteen on or before the Election Day is
encouraged to register to vote. Once registered, individuals will be
eligible to vote in the Presidential Primary scheduled to be held on
Tuesday, March 1st, 2016, and in elections thereafter. Any resident who is
unsure of their party affiliation, or who would like to change their party
status, is also encouraged to act immediately and before the February 10th
deadline.
Citizens of Hanover may conveniently register to vote or change their party
status on-line, by mail or in person. The link for on-line registration is
here: https://www.sec.state.ma.us/OVR . If residents choose to register
by mail they should download the “Massachusetts Mail-In Voter
Registration Form” found here :
https://www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/elepdf/Voter-reg-mail-in.pdf and mail the
completed form to the Hanover Town Clerk’s Office.
If voters wish to register to vote in person, they may do so at two
convenient locations: Hanover Town Hall or the Registry of Motor Vehicles.
“With four political parties and therefore four ballots at the polls,
residents are strongly encouraged to check their party status before
February 10th,” said Town Clerk Harder-Bernier. According to Secretary
of the Commonwealth William Francis Galvin, “When you register to vote,
you may choose to enroll in a political party or political designation or
may choose to remain ‘unenrolled,’ which is commonly referred to as
independent…if you enroll in any of (the) four parties you may only vote
in that party’s primary.”
