Election Day is less than two months away, but you can go to the ballots early to make sure your vote counts.
The presidential race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is top on the ballot, and the local race between State Senator Elizabeth Warren and her Republican challenger John Deaton will also be decided on Nov. 5. Voters will also decide the fate of five ballot questions.
But a single voting day can be tricky for some that have to work or may be out of town on business.
For those, early in-person and mail-in voting is available in the Commonwealth.
