Know Before You Go to the Polls 

Before heading to the polls, it helps to know what to expect. Being prepared can make your voting experience quicker and easier. This section provides important information to help you get ready for Election Day, including polling hours, what identification may be required, and what to do if you have questions when you arrive.

Taking a few minutes to review this information can help you feel confident and prepared when it’s time to cast your vote. If you need assistance, poll workers will be available to help ensure every voter can participate.

1. Are you a registered voter?

You may go on the Secretary of State Office website to check your voter status and see if you are a registered voter and/or you can register to vote or change your party.  You may also call the Town Clerk's office to find out if you are a registered voter (and ask any other questions you may have) at 508-543-1208, or visit us during normal business hours at Town Hall, 40 South Street.

FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 2025 IS THE DEADLINE TO REGISTER TO VOTE IN THE 2026 ANNUAL TOWN ELECTION (MONDAY, MAY 4, 2026) AND TOWN MEETING (MONDAY, MAY 11, 2026). THE CLERK'S OFFICE WILL HAVE EXTENDED HOURS (FROM 8:30AM TO 5PM) ON APRIL 24 FOR LAST MINUTE REGISTRATIONS.

2. Is your voter status "active"?

Voters must return their signed street list census form annual to the Town Clerks office to maintain an active voter status. Inactive voters are still eligible to vote but will be required to complete additional forms and show an ID at the polls in order to vote. To avoid having to complete additional paperwork at the polls, voters who appear as inactive can change their status to active by stopping by the Town Clerks Office to sign a census form in person.

3. Where do I vote?

The Town of Foxborough has 1 polling location for all Precincts (1-5) at John J. Ahern Middle School at 111 Mechanic Street.

4. What is my voting Precinct?

Voters will appear on the voting list only in the precinct in which their street is part of. Due to the crowds for elections, voters are strongly encouraged to already know which precinct they will be voting in before entering the polling location. A list is posted on the wall day of election.

5. What will I be voting on?

Reviewing the candidates and questions ahead of time can make your voting experience quicker and more convenient. Being prepared and knowing how you are going to vote before arriving helps you move through the process efficiently and can reduce lines on Election Day.
