Where, when to vote

Polls will be open in Sudbury from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday. The town will offer two polling places, depending on your precinct.

  • Town Hall, 322 Concord Road: Precincts 4 and 6
  • Fairbank Community Center gym, 40 Fairbank Road: Precincts 1, 2, 3 and 5

Voting by mail

If you've opted to vote by mail this year, ballots are due back to the town by 8 p.m. on Monday. It's too late to actually mail your ballot, so your best bet is to either drop in the box outside town hall or hand it in at the clerk's office. Mail-in ballots can't be handed in at polling sites.
