Relocation of Ward 7 polling place

[astropurpurea.livejournal.com]

I wonder if any other Ward 7ers got the notice yesterday (we got ours by phone) that the polling place for the upcoming election moved from its old location at West Somerville School to somewhere on Alewife Brook Parkway.  I didn't catch where the new polling place actually was....

That location is P2.

I have occasionally heard of instances where a polling place is outside of its precinct for reasons of convenience.

Maybe so but its still at an extreme end of the precinct. If the location is based on geography then as I mentioned we really don't have good central location anywhere around here. If it is based on the number of registered voters in proximity I would guess that the VNA might be best, since as I mentioned earlier the area off of Curtis has a large population of seasonal non-residents.
