In Plymouth, over nine thousand people have requested vote by mail ballots, and in-person early voting begins on May 9th…this, in the lead-up to the town election on May 18th.
WATD’s Bobbi Clark has more…
Town Clerk Kelly McElreath says there were many voters…
“…over nine thousand, that received the post-card from the state and checked the box that said: all elections. And we currently have over nine thousand voters that will be receiving a vote-by-mail ballot for the local election—hope to get those out by the end of April.”
And the Town Clerk’s advice to those voting by mail:
“Vote the ballot when you receive it and then get it back to us as soon as possible so we can make sure that it’s counted.”

“…going every business day through Wednesday, May 15th as well as Saturday, May 11th.”
There will be a single candidate on the ballot for Selectman, and that is David Golden.
