Voters of Hopkinton,

The new election law passed by the General Court and Signed by the Governor has significantly expanded early voting, by-mail and in-person. Due to occupancy issues at Town Hall, the Board of Registrars voted on 08/04/2020 to move early voting in person for the Primary to the Hopkinton Senior Center at 28 Mayhew Street. Voters will not use the main entrance and will enter through the library door and will exit through the side door once they have voted. Mask wearing as well as social distancing will be required.

Hopkinton Girl Scout, Julianna Lucas was recently awarded the Gold Award, which is the highest honor a Girl Scout can receive. For over 2 years, Julianna has been working on a project to raise voting awareness. During the project, Julianna worked closely with Town Clerk, Connor Degan and HHS Assistant Principal, Justin Pominville to learn about the voting process and raise awareness. With the assistance of Hopkinton Town Clerk, Connor Degan and HCAM, Julianna produced a video entitled "The Importance of Youth Voting" to help raise voting awareness.
