Who can vote at a Town Meeting?

Who can vote at a Town Meeting?

 

Only qualified electors of the town may vote at a town meeting.  A qualified town elector is one who in general is a U.S. citizen age 18 or over who has resided in the town for at least 28 consecutive days prior to the meeting.  The qualifications for voting at a town meeting are the same as those for voting in an election run by the town, such as the November general election or the April spring election.  However a qualified elector need not be registered to vote in order to vote at a town elector meeting.

Town board members (and their families, if qualified electors) may vote on all issues at the town meeting, even when they may themselves be affected, such as in a vote to set salaries for elected officials.  Property owners who are not electors of the town are not allowed to vote because the legislature has limited voting to town electors.
