Galvin Urging Hand Delivery Of Ballots

Because ballots must be in the hands of local election officials by 8 p.m. Tuesday, Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin is urging voters who requested mail-in ballots to deliver them either by hand to local election officials, to their local polling location, or by putting it in a local election drop box.

If you live in the City of Pittsfield, there is a secure drop box behind the Pittsfield City Hall building. The drop box is also for general correspondence and making payments.

If you have chosen to vote the traditional way, you will make your way to the polling place in your community Tuesday as you normally would. Polls are open throughout the Berkshires Tuesday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
