1-800-462-8683 Hotline Available Tuesday for Voting Problems

Voters who encounter problems at the polls Tuesday can call an elections division hotline.

The Secretary of the Commonwealth’s Elections Division can be reached at 1-800-462-8683 or 617-727-2828. The secretary advises voters to try to resolve any issues with an election warden or town clerk first.

Here’s more from the Secretary of the Commonwealth:

“If a person encounters a problem at a polling location on Election Day, the person should approach the warden or the presiding officer with the issue. As the warden or presiding officer is in charge of the polling location, they should be able to resolve any issues. However, if the problem persists, a person should contact the city or town clerk who is the chief election officer of the municipality. If the problem is still not resolved, a person may contact the Secretary of the Commonwealth’s Elections Division at 617-727-2828 or 1-800-462-8683.”
