Boston, MA: November 8, 2022: The Museum of Fine Arts is a new addition to the Ward 4 polling locations this year. Many people came to see the museum and left because it was closed for voting. Photo: Madison Neuner
Massachusetts residents made their way to the polls on Tuesday, casting their votes for governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general, as well as other local and state-level representatives. Although polling stations statewide experienced less turnout than in previous years, with roughly 1 million votes cast early or through mail-in ballots, volunteers and election observers continued to run in-person polling stations as usual.
Reporting for The Scope, Northeastern University photojournalism students took to the streets to capture moments from these polling stations on midterm Election Day in Boston.
