- Presidential Election on Tuesday, November 3, 2020
October 24, 2020 is the last day to register to vote for the Presidential Election.
To vote by mail this fall: Registered voters who submit a 2020 Vote-by-Mail application will receive their requested ballots by mail. You may promptly fill out your ballot, place it inside the signed yellow ballot envelope, and then put the yellow ballot envelope into the postage-paid return envelope provided. The return envelope can be returned either by mail or by dropping it in the secure ballot box located behind town hall by the police station. The box is monitored and contents are picked up regularly. Each return envelope has a return address sticker with a barcode so you can track your ballot online at www.sec.state.ma.us/wheredoivotema/track/trackmyballot.aspx. If you decide not to mail the ballot back or if it doesn’t reach Town Hall by election day, you can still vote in person either during early voting hours at the Library or at South Hadley High School on election day.
