@davidjohngrady If you requested a Democratic ballot, then this is likely a marking error by your clerk's office. You may correct the envelope and notify your town clerk so they are aware of the correction, but if you would prefer a replacement envelope, you may also request one from your clerk. — PolitiTweet.org

@witheyesskyward The USPS usually recommends allowing 1 week for ballot delivery. If you do not receive your ballot in tomorrow's mail, we'd recommend contacting your town clerk to ask for a 2nd ballot to be mailed to you. — PolitiTweet.org

@RoscoeGBarrel @SecretaryOfMass You don't need to rescind anything. You may vote in person as long as you have not already voted by mail. So if you choose not to return it, or it doesn't reach City Hall in time, then you can still vote in person. — PolitiTweet.org

@MatthewGalanty @SomervilleCity @MassGov It definitely will not disqualify your vote! But if you need a new ballot envelope, you can request one from the Somerville Elections office. — PolitiTweet.org

@niTWITbit We appreciate the thought, though! If you really want to avoid the postage charge for us, you can always hand-deliver the ballot to your town, if you're comfortable doing that. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@niTWITbit It's probably best not to, in case it slows your ballot down. We're using federal funds to pay for postage on these ballots, and the envelope is designed to move quickly through the USPS automated sorting system. — PolitiTweet.org

@CCCodeWrangler It may not have been entered by your clerk into the database yet, but it can't hurt to check. It can take up to a week for the application to make its way back to your town hall, but your ballot will be mailed by your clerk as quickly as possible after they get the application. — PolitiTweet.org

@Mountainhawk98 There is a Libertarian Primary this year, but no candidates filed to run in it. The Libertarian Primary ballots will include write-in spaces for each office. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

Local election officials are working tirelessly to mail ballots as quickly as possible right now. If you have any concerns about whether your application has been received yet, you can email your clerk to confirm receipt. https://t.co/yz1Rg0lBF9 — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

Have you tried tracking your ballot at https://t.co/jBrByhxViJ yet? This is an example of what you can expect to see. If your application has been received, the ballot status will say "pending" until your ballot has been mailed. https://t.co/RNZFkfZjf1 — PolitiTweet.org

Voting in the State Primary ends 3 weeks from today. If you're planning to cast your ballot by mail, make sure you submit your application ASAP! Applications can be submitted by email, as long as your signature is visible. https://t.co/B4iSkjiTeu — PolitiTweet.org

@LongmeadowMA The deadline is 8/26! — PolitiTweet.org

@jeflip If you're sure you indicated on your application that you wanted a State Primary ballot, then @BostonElections can correct that after reviewing your application. You can also follow-up with that office at 617-635-8683 or [email protected]. — PolitiTweet.org

@lizbagley Could you send us your name and address by email so we can check into it for you? — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@lizbagley Hello. Did you apply for an absentee ballot for the Presidential Primary? You may have selected a party ballot for the State Primary at that time. If not, please email us with your name and address at [email protected] so we can check into it for you. — PolitiTweet.org

Unenrolled voters (Independents) can vote in the State Primary without registering in a party. Still pondering which party primary you want to vote in? Enter your address at https://t.co/xH7U2oZXk8 to view your ballot options. https://t.co/5b98Hp408O — PolitiTweet.org

@bski_BackInNE Most towns were already using drop boxes for their local elections earlier this year, but many have purchased bigger ones for ballots. You can contact your local election official to find out where drop boxes may be located in your community. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@bski_BackInNE The law does allow for ballot return to secured municipal drop boxes, where the city/town has provided them. It's up to each municipality to decide if/where to provide those drop boxes, but they will need to be able to empty them regularly and staff them on Election Day — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

Are you voting by mail this year? The first step is making sure your registration is up to date. You can check your voter registration info at https://t.co/CHTzRPjHfj and update your address if you've moved. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@JDawsonTweets A new law passed in July allows for the return of ballots by secure municipal drop box, if the city or town has provided one. All communities are encouraged to have them, but they will need to be able to secure them, empty them regularly, and staff them on Election Night. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@GeorgeFFrazier The greatest need is for election officers in polling places to check-in, direct, and assist voters. Some communities may also need help in the clerk's office to answer phones or help administratively. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@Indivisible_MVY @SecretaryOfMass All local election officials have been offered the opportunity to advertise for poll workers on our website. None of our Dukes County town clerks have asked to be included yet, but we continue to add towns as clerks request to be included. — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

Are you able be a poll worker this fall? Poll workers are needed for the Sept. 1 Primary, the Nov. 3 Election & early voting. Having enough poll workers is the best way to keep lines short & reduce crowding in polling places. https://t.co/rIx8xzWddJ — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@MikeNicholson1 @BillGalvin4MA Applications were mailed to all voters who were registered as of July 1st and hadn't already requested a mail-in ballot. If you would like to email your info to us at [email protected], we would be happy to look into this and send you a second application. — PolitiTweet.org

Election Day is 3 months from today, but first we'll be holding our State Primary in 29 days. Ballots have started to be mailed out already, so get your Vote by Mail application in ASAP if that is how you plan to vote! https://t.co/B4iSkjiTeu — PolitiTweet.org

Mass. Elections @VotingInMass

@onestunnna87 @BillGalvin4MA Info on early voting is available at https://t.co/jg3AQ8eG0S. Local election officials are still finalizing their schedules and locations, but you will be able to see that information as soon as it is ready. — PolitiTweet.org
