Election Information & Voting Locations

The polls are open in Grafton for a Local Election from 8 am to 8 pm and for a State Election from 7 am to 8 pm. The Annual Local Election is held the third Tuesday in May of each year.

If you are a registered voter in Grafton and will not be able to vote on election day and wish to do so, you must apply for an absentee ballot in person before noon the day before the election or 5 pm the 5th business day before the election for any mail in ballot. Please see more information about Absentee voting.

In a primary election, a voter who is registered in a political party is restricted to the ballot for the party in which the voter is registered. The "unenrolled" voter may choose a ballot for any party participating in the primary election without changing the voter's "unenrolled" status. This also applies to voters registered in any other political designation.

If you are disabled and need assistance, you may have someone accompany you who can provide the needed assistance. Assistance may also be requested from election workers.

Prohibited Activities

State law prohibits the display of political paraphernalia within 150 feet of the entrance to the polling location. Signs, stickers, and lapel buttons are not permitted within the restricted zone. State regulations also prohibit political solicitation within the restricted zone. This also applies to 30 Providence Road during Absentee and Early Voting per the Electioneering Policy (PDF) signed by the Select Board of December 14, 2021.
