Town Election is Today

Today is the town election. Here is an example of the ballot you'll see when you vote. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Here's where you vote:

• If you live in Precincts 1, 2 or 3, you'll vote at the Masonic Temple at 62 Pleasant St., according to the Town Clerk's web site.
• Residents of Precincts 4, 5 or 6 will vote at the Community Center at 10 Humphrey St.

If you're not sure which precinct you live in, the Secretary of State's Web site has a handy online look-up tool.

Perhaps the most-watched race this year looked to be for two seats on the tumultuous School Committee. However, several candidates who had enough signatures bowed out, including incumbent Jonathan Lederman. That leaves only incumbent Kathleen Leonardson and challenger Meredith Tedford on the May 13 ballot.

Residents will be asked back to the polls soon to vote on potential Proposition 2 1/2 overrides arising from last week's Town Meeting.
