Elections decide who fights for you, your neighborhood, and the right to a truly affordable home. When we vote, we choose the leaders who shape housing policy, opportunity, and justice in our communities — in Boston and across Massachusetts. Voting is how we show elected officials that we matter, that our voices count, and that we expect them to deliver on their commitments. Using our vote is one of the most powerful ways we can protect and expand affordable homeownership for ourselves, our families, and future generations.

Whether you’re voting for the first time or just want to be sure your information is up to date, checking your voter registration status is fast and easy. Making sure you’re registered is the first step to having your voice heard.
Voting by mail is a convenient way to make sure your vote counts, even if you’re busy or can’t get to the polls on Election Day. You can request a mail-in ballot online and track it once it’s been sent.
Upcoming elections are important moments to put that power into action. Below you’ll find key election dates and information to help you plan ahead and make sure your vote is counted.
Candidate Questionnaires
In every election, MAHA asks candidates how they will support affordable homeownership if elected, and we share their responses so our members can hold them accountable. These questionnaires are designed by and for our members, centering the issues that matter most to homebuyers and homeowners. Read them to understand where candidates stand on issues like funding for homeownership programs, down payment assistance, affordable mortgages, and the construction of affordable homes. Below you’ll find candidates’ responses from recent elections — part of a growing, living database to help voters make informed decisions.
