In order to vote on any article at a town meeting, registered voters must attend the meeting and vote in person when the article is presented and the vote is called. This is because the language to any warrant article is open to amendments.
If you are not able to get to the polls for town elections on May 4, you can cast an absentee ballot for the candidates running for office.
