Change of address?

You must update your voter registration every time you move. You may update your registration by filling out a new voter registration form if you have moved. Suppose you move after the deadline to register to vote in a state election or primary. In that case, you should wait to update your registration until after the election date or primary and return to vote at your previous polling place in Massachusetts. State law allows you to vote from a prior address in a state election for up to six (6) months after you have moved, as long as you have not registered elsewhere.
