Elections & Voter Registration

Residents can register to vote at the Town Clerk’s office during business hours or online. Eligible persons may register to vote on any day up to and including the day of the election.

Online Voter Registration

Once registered, all voters have a Voter Dashboard. Use your My Voter Page to update voter registration status and information, request absentee ballots, find polling locations, respond to challenge letters, take your Voter’s Oath.

For more information on voter registration, refer to the Vermont Secretary of State’s voter registration page.

The annual town meeting is held the first Tuesday of March. Elections are held at the Waitsfield Elementary School when school is NOT in session. If school is in session, elections will be held primarily at the Village Meeting House, which is downstairs in the United Church of Christ or the Waitsfield Town Office. To confirm an election location or learn about upcoming elections, voters may call the Town Clerk or refer to their Voter Dashboard.

Both forms are due back at the Waitsfield Town Office by 5:00 p.m. on Monday, January 26. Print PDF here, stop by the Town Office to pick one up or email the Town Clerk at jennifer.peterson@waitsfieldvt.gov to have one emailed to you.
