To all Norton Residents:Live early voting was originally scheduled to be in both the Cafeteria and Gymnasium of the Norton Middle School. There has been very little activity so I have closed off the Cafeteria and it is being held in the Gymnasium only. If you come to early vote, please enter at the side door leading into the Gymnasium. Signs have been posted.

I encourage you to wear masks and bring your own pens. Again, please NO red pens, or the machines will reject the ballots. Sanitized pens and masks will be available if needed. The 6-foot distance rule will apply.
