Local Election Updates: Key Dates, Questions, and Changes in Polling Locations for Belmont Residents

The town election is scheduled, with polling stations open from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm. There won't be In-Person Early Voting for this Local Election. The Vote by Mail deadline is 5 PM, Tuesday, March 26, 2024. Voters can track their mailed ballot using The League of Women Voters Guide. A video of Candidates' Night, held on Thursday, March 21, 2024 at 7 PM, is available for viewing.

The Local Election Ballot will have two questions. The first question is whether the Town of Belmont should assess an extra $8,400,000 in real estate and personal property taxes to supplement the capital budget and the town and school operating budgets for the fiscal year starting July 2024. The second question is whether the Town's elected Board of Assessors should become an appointed board.

Polling locations have been announced. Due to the construction of a new Library Building, the polling location for Precinct One has changed. Precinct One voters received a card with details in February.

The last day to register to vote in the Local Election is 10 days before the election, which is Saturday, March 23, 2024. The deadline is 5 PM for in-person requests, 11:59 PM for online requests, and postmarked by Saturday, March 23, 2024 for mail-in requests.
