“We had discussions afterwards of what worked best, what didn’t work, and we’ve amended and corrected the procedures as we’ve gone forward,” Massachusetts Secretary of State Bill Galvin said.

Early and traditional Election Day voting create a variety of different deadlines.

Voter registration is due by Oct. 26, early voting is between Oct. 19 and Nov. 1 and Oct. 29 is the final day to request a mail-in ballot.

“We suggest they don’t use the mail when we get down to seven days,” said Galvin. “The Postal Service has told us — we’ve been in contact with them, pushing them real hard — and they’ve told us don’t rely on them within seven days.”
