Remember to vote in the 2026 Primary election this Tuesday 9/1. And mark your calendars for the 2026 general election Nov. 3.
And watch this space for more information on the nine ballot questions you will be asked to vote on. We expect to shortly receive the following from Commonwealth Beacon.
- One-page explainers on all nine questions. Nonpartisan and plain language, laying out exactly what a yes vote and a no vote each do. We’re also partnering with El Planeta and the Bay State Banner to help us ensure our print guides make it in the hands of voters around the state.
- A digital voter guide on our website with downloadable explainers, related reporting, up-to-date information on who is funding each side, video explainers, and context from proponents and opponents alike.
- A pop-up newsletter that walks you through what questions are most contentious, what our reporters are watching, and, once the votes are counted, what the results mean for the state.
