Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier announced that Friday, April
21st is the last day to register to vote in the May 1st Annual Town Meeting
and/or in the May 13th Annual Town Election. The Hanover Town
Clerk’s/Registrar’s Office will be open until 5:00 p.m. on April 21st,
and on-line registration will be available until 11:59 p.m. that night.
Please come to the Town Clerk’s/Registrar’s side entrance lower-level
door if you need to register in person. Read on for on-line registration
information!
Any Hanover citizen who will be eighteen on or before the first day of Town
Meeting (May 1st) or by the Town Election (May 13th) is encouraged to
register to vote. Once registered, individuals will be eligible to vote in
all elections thereafter. Further, residents may “pre-register” to
vote if they are age 16 or 17, but they will not be eligible to vote until
they turn 18.
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:

. If residents choose to register by mail they should download the
“Massachusetts Mail-In Voter Registration Form” found here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=9UdczQVgsnCwmXZ0sUfJ/syi5xHVlWd+mf31gfnjPWZoqLt7nDOYRqoN783ZLADJ
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 automatic registration now the law of the land in Massachusetts,
very few people actually need to come in to register to vote”, said
Harder-Bernier. “However, what we do occasionally see is that people who
have moved recently and/or who have not updated their driver’s license –
those people do need to update their voter registration status. We also
sometimes see 18-year-olds who do not yet have driver’s licenses who need
to register to vote. We look forward to helping those folks!”, said
Harder-Bernier.
