Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin is urging voters to hand deliver their mail-in ballots to drop boxes and election offices around the state, instead of dropping them in the mail, in an effort to ensure they arrive in time and are counted for the Sept. 1 primary.
The announcement comes as communities across the state are rallying to show support for their local post offices.
"If you are able to do so, the best way to ensure that your ballot is counted is to deliver it in person," Galvin said.
Ballots can be dropped off at early voting locations, and drop boxes outside of town halls and city halls around the state. But they must reach each voter's local election office by 8 p.m. on Sept. 1 in order to be counted.
