Summary
"If you're registered in Roxbury, you must vote in Roxbury," she said. "Just because there's a polling location next to your work, that doesn't mean you can vote there."
* "Inactive" voters can still vote. Voters are considered "inactive" if they didn't return the annual census form mailed this past February or if they moved without notifying election officials in writing of their address change by Oct. 15. They can still cast ballots, but the process is more complicated. They have to go to the polling place for the ward/precinct in which they were last registered, produce ID showing their current address, and fill out two forms - one saying they have maintained continuous residency in the city, the other a new registration for their new address - before they can vote.* Have ID that shows who you are and where you live. First-time voters, "inactive" voters and those who have registered by mail since 2003 are among those who may be required to show identification, according to [Geraldine Cuddyer]. If you don't have one form of ID showing both your identity and your current address (like a valid Massachusetts driver's license), make sure you have at least one that can confirm each (like a passport and a utility bill sent to your address).See the full content of this document
