Haverhill residents may cast their ballots early for presidential party nominees next month.
The Massachusetts presidential primary is Super Tuesday, March 3, but residents may vote as early as Monday, Feb. 24, at 8 a.m., in the basement of Haverhill City Hall. Early voting for president takes place for the first time this year, says City Clerk Linda L. Koutoulas.
Early voting runs through Friday, Feb. 28, during regular business hours, from 8 a.m.-4 p.m., at Haverhill City Hall, 4 Summer St., in the former Registry of Motor Vehicles office. For those desiring later times, Haverhill extends hours until 8 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 26.
To vote, those who haven’t done so must register by Feb. 12, 8 p.m., at the City Clerk’s office, on the first floor of City Hall. Voter status may be checked online at sec.state.ma.us. Inactive voters must provide identification or proof of residence when voting.
Ballots will be secured in a locked vault and delivered to residents’ regular polling locations on Election Day to be counted.
Those with questions may call the Clerk’s office at 978-374-2312 or email Elections Administrator James R. Blatchford at [email protected].
