Massachusetts
My vote power: Above average
What does this measure do?
Lets eligible people register to vote or update their address at their polling place on Election Day, starting in 2028, by showing proof of residency and signing an oath. Cities and towns would cover the cost without new state money.
Proposed by: Citizen initiative by Secretary of State William Galvin
Galvin is the state's chief election official. He proposed the question himself. He has said the many 2026 ballot questions reflect frustration with the Legislature's inaction.
