Voting info and more
Massachusetts held its state primary on September 1, 2026. A plurality won each nomination and voters not enrolled in a party could take either ballot, per the Secretary of the Commonwealth. Nominees meet on the November 3 general ballot. Results are unofficial until certified by the Secretary of the Commonwealth. Massachusetts has no automatic recount; a districtwide recount requires a margin of 0.5 percent or less, and no district here is close to that.
Only one name is on the ballot for this office: no other candidate qualified. An unopposed candidate is elected unless a write-in outpolls them where write-ins are allowed, so this line still counts as a vote.
