Somerville Launching VoteSomerville Tool for Voters to Verify Their Ward and Polling Place

Mayor Katjana Ballantyne is pleased to share that the City of Somerville has created a new web page where voters can look up their current address to verify their ward and polling place ahead of the November 2024 Presidential Election. 

The portal is designed to provide Somerville voters with localized, precise ward and polling place information so you know where to go on Election Day. To use the portal, visit somervillema.gov/votesomerville and start typing your address into the search bar. Simply keep typing until you see a match, and then click on the correct matching address. The portal will then display your ward, precinct, and polling place with address, as well as the names and contact information of your City, State, and Federal officials.  

You will also find helpful links with directions to your polling place, instructions on how to register to vote, vote-by-mail guidance, and ballot dropbox locations.  

Under rare circumstances, such as new construction, your address may not appear in the search. If you don’t find your address, you can also contact the Elections Department at 617-625-6600 ext. 4200 to verify your polling place or check with the Commonwealth’s online tool for finding election information.  

A complete list of polling places is available on the City’s website.  

This tool was created as an enhancement to existing statewide tools, providing Somerville-specific information as well as additional translation options to meet the needs of the City's residents. 

Translations: Somerville has made the text of each ballot question on the November ballot available online in 12 languages. You can find these translated ballots on the City’s website. If you need help at your polling place, interpreters are available by phone on-demand. You can request an interpreter by asking one of the poll workers at your polling place.  

Accessibility: The State of Massachusetts and the City of Somerville work to ensure equal access to all for voting. Poll workers are trained to assist voters with disabilities, and all polling places include accessible parking, entrances, and ramps wherever there are stairs.  

Early voting and all polling locations must have at least one accessible voting machines. AutoMARK Voter Assist Terminals are available at all Somerville polling locations for visually impaired voters and can also read your ballot to you before you print it out and submit it.  
 

Persons with disabilities who need auxiliary aids and services for effective communication (i.e., CART, ASL), written materials in alternative formats, or reasonable modifications in policies and procedures in order to access the programs, activities, and meetings of the City of Somerville should please contact Adrienne Pomeroy in advance at 617-625-6600 x 2059 or apomeroy@somervillema.gov.

Interpretation into any language is available upon advance request (at least seven days in advance) by contacting the SomerViva Office of Immigrant Affairs at somervillema.gov/ContactSomerViva or calling 311 at 617-666-3311.
