BOSTON — The race between incumbent Senator Ed Markey and the challenger Congressman Joe Kennedy III has ebbed and flowed. When Kennedy announced, he immediately leaped ahead in the polls. But more recently, the real-clear politics average of polls has Markey ahead by double digits.
The question is not only who will turn out to vote Tuesday, but who has already turned out to vote.
The Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin said 700,000 voters have already cast their ballots. Roughly 600,000 of those are mail-in ballots.
If you still have a mail-in ballot in your possession, Galvin recommends dropping it off at your town or city clerk’s office or your municipality’s drop box. On Monday, it won’t necessarily make it there in time if you send it through regular mail.
Ballots need to be in by 8 p.m. Tuesday. In-person voting is available as well.
