An Act improving voting access and elections infrastructure

This bill aims to improve voting access and election infrastructure in Massachusetts by allowing voters to easily choose permanent mail-in voting when they register. It requires election officials to send multilingual notices to new registrants explaining their options, including how to become a permanent mail voter. The legislation also updates the names of local governing bodies in election laws and mandates that colleges and universities have at least one polling place within a mile of their campus. Additionally, it clarifies the dates for state and presidential primaries and allows towns to hold local elections on the same day as a presidential primary if they use a separate ballot.
