Massachusetts residents can register to vote online at www.RegisterToVoteMA.com, the official state voter registration portal maintained by the Secretary of the Commonwealth. The registration deadline is 20 days before any election. Voters need a Massachusetts driver's license or state ID to register online, or can register by mail or in person at the Town Clerk's office.

Election records in Massachusetts are highly transparent: voter registration lists are public records available through the Elections Division of the Secretary of the Commonwealth, precinct-level election results are published by each municipality and aggregated statewide, and campaign finance reports for candidates and political action committees are available through the state's Office of Campaign and Political Finance (OCPF) at www.ocpf.us. On November 3, 2026, West Millbury voters will decide several significant races: the Massachusetts gubernatorial election (Governor Maura Healey's term expires in 2027, so 2026 will feature the gubernatorial election), all U.S. House of Representatives seats including Massachusetts's 2nd Congressional District which covers Millbury, the Massachusetts state legislature including State Senate and State Representative seats, the statewide constitutional offices (Attorney General, Secretary of the Commonwealth, Treasurer, and Auditor), and Worcester County Register of Deeds. There is no U.S. Senate seat from Massachusetts up in 2026 (Senators Warren and Markey have terms expiring in different cycles). Massachusetts allows early voting for all biennial state elections and presidential elections, with early voting periods beginning approximately two weeks before Election Day. Absentee voting (vote-by-mail) is available to any registered voter who requests a ballot; applications can be submitted online at www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/eleabsentee/absidx.htm or by contacting the Millbury Town Clerk. Absentee ballot applications must be received by the Town Clerk by noon the day before the election, though earlier submission is strongly encouraged. Massachusetts does not require an excuse to vote absentee.
