person’s dignity, freedom, ability and
responsibility must be honored.

Our excellent Town Clerk, Emily Mitchell has provided info on the early/mail in votes to dateRunning stats:Vote by Mail: 3,989 ballots mailed (those with a keen eye may notice this number has gone down – some voters who have been mailed a ballot have subsequently chosen to vote in person instead – when that happens, I delete their mailed ballot from this figure so they are not double-counted in our statistics; those mailed ballots are essentially void, as we have an alternate cast ballot received from the voter), 2,879 ballots returnedIn Person Early Voting: 1,355 voters from 10/19 through today (10/28)Total cast ballots to date (in person and by mail): 4,234Total registered voters: 12,117Total turnout to date: 34.9%Good job so far Harwich Voters -- check that turnout to date percentage one more time -- yup 34.9% Keep that number going up!!
