The 2024 presidential election got underway in earnest this week with the Iowa Caucuses. Soon enough we here in Massachusetts and Fall River will be once again going to the polls.
The Fall River Board of Election Commissioners has announced that local voters will soon be receiving an application in the mail for those interested in voting by mail this year. Election Commission Chair Ryan Lyons says the application will cover three state elections this year.
Mr. Lyons says Fall River voters have been fairly receptive to exploring the option of voting by mail.
The first election of the year will take place on March 5th with the presidential primary. Along with the mail ballots, voters will have the opportunity to vote early in person one week before election day.
Even though mandated by state law, Mr. Lyons says interest in early in-person voting has waned in recent years.
For more information on voting options, contact the election commissioner’s office at 508-324-2630.
