Citizens who will turn 18 on or before the Tuesday, Nov. 5 presidential election can pre-register to vote now so that they will be automatically registered and eligible to vote when they turn 18.
Many teens have been automatically pre-registered to vote when they applied for a learner’s permit or driver’s license at the Registry of Motor Vehicles. Teens who are not getting a driver’s license can pre-register to vote by downloading a registration form and returning it to the Town Clerk’s office, 322 Concord Rd., Sudbury.
Teens—and everyone else—can check their current voter registration status and, if necessary, register to vote at www.VoteinMA.com. Saturday, Oct. 26 is the voter registration deadline for the Nov. 5 presidential election; register online before midnight or at the Town Clerk’s office by 5 p.m.
