Notice from Quincy Elections Department

On June 1, 2026, the City of Quincy was required by law to designate voters as inactive if an annual census was not returned. As a result, 22,286 voters were moved to inactive status.

Inactive voters may return to active status at any time by completing an Affirmation of Current and Continuous Residence, submitting a new voter registration form, or providing a signed confirmation of their current address to the Election Department, under penalty of perjury. All inactive voters will receive a postcard in the mail with the opportunity to return to active status.

Being inactive does NOT remove your right to vote, but it is important to update your status to ensure your voter information is current. Maintaining active status helps avoid delays at the polls.

Check your voter status by visiting: www.sec.state.ma.us/OVR/ or by calling (617)-376-1144. To learn more about inactive voting, visit: [www.sec.state.ma.us/divisions/elections/voting-information/inactive-voters.htm]www.sec.state.ma.us/divisions/elections/voting-information/inactive-voters.htm

Mayor Tom Koch recently presented the 2026 Richard J. Koch Youth Service Award to MSgt. John DeLorenzo, United States Air Force (Ret.), in recognition of his outstanding commitment to the youth of Quincy through his leadership and dedication to the ROTC program at North Quincy High School. Although the award is traditionally presented during Quincy's Flag Day Celebration, this year's presentation was held earlier to accommodate DeLorenzo's schedule.

As a dedicated mentor and educator, DeLorenzo has helped promote leadership, foster patriotism and encourage students to develop a deeper appreciation for service to others.

The Richard J. Koch Youth Service Award honors individuals whose commitment to young people reflects the vision of its namesake, Richard J. Koch, who believed that every child deserves the chance to succeed. His guiding philosophy remains at the heart of the award: “The enjoyment, the participation of the youngster is paramount—and the competition secondary.”
