US Primaries are in full swing

So the bulk of the US primaries are upon us! 

My Time to Vote is a great resource across the states--- if you get their app (I couldn't find a link on the website, but if you search for it on your device's app store you can probably find it) it's a quick way to find your local election dates.

Vote411, by the League of Women Voters, is another "one-stop shop" for voter information.

Common Cause is still another resource--- if I recall correctly, in addition to proving information to voters, they also offer opportunities to volunteer as a non-partisan poll monitor.

ETA: Courtesy of [personal profile] philomytha there's also Vote From Abroad, which is a non-partisan org helping US citizens living/traveling abroad to vote, and Democrats Abroad, which is for Democrats living aboard, including help voting in the Global Primary. (Also, at least one person has commented with state-specific information--- thanks, [personal profile] redbird !--- so you may want to keep checking comments here.)

Finally, here's the roundup I did back in 2018 of state-by-state official voting websites; I haven't updated it and would not be shocked if some of the links are dated, but it's a place to start: Link(spam): US Voter information.

Can I add www.votefromabroad.org, for Americans living overseas, and democratsabroad.org which has details of the Global Primary specifically for overseas voters?

Massachusetts is doing early voting this week, with (at least) one location in every city and town in the state. (The primary is on March 3.)

If you haven't seen signs or gotten mail telling you where you can vote early--Cambridge and Somerville have signs outside T stations, and Belmont put it in the monthly electric bill--you can call the city or town, or check the website listed here. (I checked, it still works.)
