From the Registrars of Voters

The polls will be open on October 11 from Noon to 8PM in the Community Room at Town Hall, for electors and residents on the October, 2021 Grand List as owning at least $1000 of property, to participate in the non-binding vote: Shall the Hampton Board of Education negotiate and enter into a Cooperative Agreement with the Scotland Board of Education to open and operate a Hampton/Scotland Cooperative Elementary School, to commence at the beginning of the 2023-2024 school year?” Absentee ballots are available in the Office of the Town Clerk during regular business hours, Tuesdays from 9AM to 4PM and Thursdays from 10AM to 7PM.

The Registrars of Voters will hold a registry session on November 1 from 9AM to 8PM in their Office at Town Hall for the purpose of registering voters who appear in person. The deadline for mail-in applications is also November 1. Hand-delivered mail-in registration applications must be received by the Registrars, or a Voter Registration Agency such as the Department of Motor Vehicles, on this date, and mail-in registration applications must be post-marked by this date in order for applicants to be entitled to participate in the November 8 State Election. Only those whose qualifications as to age, citizenship, or residence mature after the November 1 deadline may register to vote up until November 7, when the Registrars will hold a limited registration session at their Office at Town Hall from 9AM to 5PM.

Absentee ballots for the State Election will become available on October 7 at the Office of the Town Clerk during regular business hours. Completed applications and ballots may be mailed, or delivered, to the Town Clerk, or placed in the secured deposit box at the top of the ramp at Town Hall.
