Election Day in Boston

Monday November 2, 2009

The final push in the Boston mayoral election race is underway with Tuesday's Election Day looming.

According to Fox 25 News, incumbent Thomas M. Menino still holds a 20-point lead over challenger Michael Flaherty in his bid for re-election. But while that race may be a slam-dunk win, there are plenty of other district races that may indeed come down to the wire. The Election Department also has a complete list of candidates on the ballot.

All polling areas (156 of them throughout greater Boston) in the city will open Tuesday morning at 7. Click here to find out where your polling location is. All precincts will have ballots written in English and Spanish and ballots fully translated in Chinese and Vietnamese will also be available. Interpreters will also be available in the following languages: Chinese (both Mandarin and Cantonese dialects), Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, Cape Verdean Creole, and Russian.
