Voting will look different this year
From MassLive:
All Massachusetts voters will have
the option to vote early and vote by mail this fall, after Gov. Charlie Baker
signed legislation expanding new voting procedures aimed at boosting election
participation amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. MassLive’s Steph Solis, the Globe’s Abigail Feldman and
CommonWealth’s Shira Schoenberg have more
on the new law – and how Secretary of State William Galvin will send each
registered voter an application to request a mail-in ballot for both the Sept.
1 state primary and the Nov. 3 general election, as Feldman writes.
Our guess: Potentially millions
could opt for early and voting-by-mail options – and wary town clerks better be
ready. And candidates for office better pick up the pace of their campaigning,
for the window to win over voters has just shortened

Great news. This had to be done in this time
If you think voting will look different this year, that will be nothing compared to the campaigning of next year. The Mayor's and Council's seats will be up for grabs. The good ole boys network lost their shot for the top seat 2 years ago and now they ain't got any power on the council. They will come out with every dirty trick to try and regain their power. Next year we are going to see Framingham politics at its worst.
One could say, the campaigning has already started, by the looks of the cc meetings.
How much time is wasted listening to Stefanini blabbering on endlessly at every meeting?
to much time I would say. George needs to keep him on point IMO.
