Ready to cast your ballot? Early voting for the September 1 State Primary kicks off in Boston on Saturday, August 22, and runs through Friday, August 28. The deadline to register to vote is also Saturday, August 22.

Here in Eastie, residents can vote early at BCYF Paris Street Community Center, 112 Paris Street, East Boston, MA 02128 from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. on Saturday, August 22, and Sunday, August 23.

Any registered Boston voter can vote at any early voting location in the city — you don’t have to stick to your regular polling place. If you miss early voting, Election Day is Tuesday, September 1, with polls open from 7am–8pm at your assigned polling location.

You can find the full list of early voting locations and hours on the City of Boston’s Early Voting page.
