Thoughts on Early Voting in Boston? Send 'Em Here

Boston, MA - The city election department is seeking feedback on the locations and timing of its early voting locations.

According to a city press release: "The Early Voting Initiative will make participation in Election Day more convenient for all, particularly those with work schedules, family obligations or other obstacles. To promote access across the city, the Mayor's FY17 budget proposal commits $670,000 to meet and exceed the state requirement of having one early voting site open during normal business hours."
Early Voting runs from Oct. 24 to Nov. 4, 5 p.m. City Hall will be the main Early Voting location for in-person voting during that period, but voters can also vote early by mail-in application. For neighborhood locations, the Election Department requests input on the schedule and the most convenient times.

Visit earlyvoting.boston.gov to provide input on their preferred locations and days/times for early voting. Feedback can also be provided through the Boston Election Department's Facebook page, or @BostonElections on Twitter or via email at EVfeedback@boston.gov.

The survey will be up until 5 p.m., June 16, and feedback will be incorporated into the plan that will be recommended to the Election Commission for approval on July 6, the election department said.
