WILMINGTON, MA — The biggest day in the presidential nominating process happens on March 5, also known as Super Tuesday.
Massachusetts will be among 16 states (counting a mail-in Democratic primary in Iowa and a Republican primary in Alaska) and American Samoa voting on Super Tuesday — even though the presidential race will assuredly be between President Joe Biden and former president Donald Trump.
But Massachusetts voters also have other races to vote in: state committee man and committee woman candidates will also be on the ballot. In Wilmington, voters will also choose Town Committee candidates.
