Vote Monday in Town Election

This Monday, March 31, is Election Day in Sudbury for the Annual Town Election. Return your mail ballot to the drop box behind Town Hall or vote in person by 8 p.m. Monday.

In-person voting for all six Sudbury precincts is at Fairbank Community Center, 40 Fairbank Rd.  Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Voters who have not yet returned a mail ballot should deposit their ballot in the secure ballot drop box at the rear of Town Hall, 322 Concord Rd. The drop box is available 24 hours, seven days a week. It is too late to send your mail ballot by U.S. Postal Service to be sure it has been received the town clerk’s office by 8 p.m. on Election Day. Ballots not received by 8 p.m. on Monday, March 31, will not be counted. Postmarks do not count. Mail ballots cannot be returned to the polls at Fairbank Community Center.

Voters using a mail ballot must sign the yellow envelope after inserting their ballot or the ballot will not be counted. The signed yellow envelope is then put in the white return envelope.

Voters should check the status of their mail ballot on Election Day. If your mail ballot is not received by Election Day, or if it is rejected for an error such as forgetting to sign the envelope, you may still vote in person before the polls close. Track the status of a mail ballot here.

If you requested a mail ballot but did not receive it, or if you have not yet returned your mail ballot, you may choose to vote in person on Election Day instead of voting by mail.

There are three contested races on the Annual Town Election ballot.

For the two Select Board seats, candidates are Lisa Kouchakdjian, Radha Gargeya, and Kevin Matthews.

Running for the single two-year seat on the Sudbury School Committee are Elizabeth Sues and Allison Vanderels.

For the two seats on the Lincoln-Sudbury Regional District School Committee, candidates are Charles Morton, IV, Eric Poch, and John Ryan, Jr.

Information on the candidates and links to the Candidates’ Forums for the three contested races plus a program on uncontested candidates are available in the LWV Voters’ Guide.

Information about voting can be found in the League’s Election FAQs and on the Town Clerk’s website.
