Acceptable proof includes a valid Vermont driver's license with current address, a recent utility bill, or another resident who can vouch for the applicant. Cambridgeport is part of Rockingham's broader town elections, which occur annually on Town Meeting Day (the first Tuesday in March). Vermont's traditional Town Meeting Day includes voting on local budgets, school spending, and town officers including selectboard members, town clerk, and various appointed positions. Rockingham does not have a mayor; the town is governed by a five-member selectboard. The next selectboard elections will occur March 3, 2026, with multiple seats typically on rotation. Cambridgeport voters cast ballots at the Rockingham Town Hall polling location at 27 School Street in Bellows Falls; voters can verify their specific polling place and view sample ballots at mvp.vermont.gov, the state's My Voter Page portal.
