Presidential Primary Voting Information for Election Day
The Presidential Primary in Massachusetts is finally upon us! Early voting ended on Friday, March 1, 2024.
Election Day Information
Election Day, Super Tuesday, is Tuesday, March 5, 2024. The polls are open from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm at Hanover High School, 287 Cedar Street.
Every registered voter may vote in this election regardless of party affiliation. If you are unenrolled/independent, you'll have to pick your ballot when you arrive at the polls. Visit the Hanover Town Clerk's Voter Registration, Upcoming Elections, and How to Vote resources to view sample ballots. Please make sure you know which ballot you want before you check-in. Once you check-in, you can't swap your ballot for a different one. If you are enrolled in a party, you can only vote on that party's ballot.
Vote by Mail Ballots
The ballot drop box in front of the Hanover Town Hall will be open until 8:00 pm on Election Day. It will be emptied regularly by election staff with the assistance of the Hanover Police, and all of those ballots will be counted on Election Day as long as they are received in the box before the close of polls. Do not bring your Vote by Mail Ballots to the polls
Additional Information
Tuesday is a half day of school in Hanover. As a result, voters should access the polling area from the back of the high school if they are arriving in the morning. There will be designated voter-only parking along the music wing and near the locker rooms in the back of the building. The front doors will be locked during school hours (7:55 am to 12:30 pm) as per usual. The back doors will be open, and you'll turn right upon entering to get to the gym/polling place. The rest of the building will be inaccessible to the public before 12:30 pm, so please plan accordingly.
Be aware of regular school day traffic congestion from 7:30 am to 8:00 am and again from 12:15 pm to 12:45 pm.
Mom on the Go Food Truck will be parked in the back of the building from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm.
