From the Town Clerk’s office…

 We’d like to extend our gratitude to the residents who voted in the 2025 Local Election, as well as the poll workers who work so hard to make our elections run smoothly. 1,676 residents voted in the election, representing 12% of our registered voters. This is in line with our usual turnout for Local Elections, although we’re always looking for ways to increase our voter participation. If you have any ideas, please feel free to reach out to our office!

 Some of you may have received “inactive voter” cards. This simply means we didn’t receive your updated 2025 census. It’s no cause for alarm; if you still reside in Bellingham simply sign and date the form and send it back to assure you stay on the voter rolls. Per MA General Laws, your name may be removed from the voter rolls if you do not return your census or the postcard, vote in at least one of the next two state elections, or take other action that would reinstate you as a voter. This is one way we make sure our voter rolls stay current and accurate.

 Lastly, I’m happy to let you know we’ve purchased two accessible voting booths with curtains for our voters with disabilities. These will be ready for our next election, which is scheduled for June of next year.

 As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out at (508) 657 – 2833 or townclerk@bellinghamma.org.  Thank you,

 Amy Bartelloni
