Early Voting Rolls Out In Massachusetts

11:38

Seventeen percent of Massachusetts voters already have cast ballots in this general election. Early voting began Saturday.

We check in with Secretary of the Commonwealth Bill Galvin and hear from Jeff Nutting, who is helping cover administrative duties in Brookline while Town Clerk Patrick Ward is on medical leave.
