Selection of Ballot Types - Primary Election Only In a primary election, a voter who is not registered in a political party (Unenrolled or commonly known as Independent) must specify the party ballot type choice on the application to vote by mail. Unenrolled/Independent voters who select a party ballot type do not become registered in that party - they remain Unenrolled/Independent voters. Voters who are registered in one of the 4 political parties (Democrat, Republican, Green-Rainbow, Libertarian) MUST take that party ballot and are not given a choice of ballot type - verify your party enrollment or change your party enrollment prior to the deadline to register to vote and before applying for a mail in ballot.

Voter Registration Deadline

For those not already registered, or wish to change their party enrollment, the voter registration deadline for the September 1st Primary is August 22nd. In person voter registration will take place at the Senior Center Saturday August 22nd 10am - 4pm and at Town Hall from 7pm - 8pm.
