Lincoln’s 2024 election results

November 6, 2024

Editor’s note: the Massachusetts results for ballot questions 4 and 5 were reversed in the original version of this article. The table and story have been corrected.

Here is a summary of Lincoln’s 2024 election results. The races for U.S. representative, councillor, state senator, state representative (14th Norfolk district) and clerk of courts were uncontested and are not included below. The full results are available here.

A total of 3,895 ballots (2,365 in Precinct 1 and 1,530 in Precinct 2) were cast by Lincoln’s 5,165 registered voters, according to Town Clerk Valerie Fox. Early voting accounted for 2,617 ballots (1,028 in person and 1,589 by mail).

Ballot questions

On the five state ballot questions, Lincoln’s results were similar to those statewide for Questions 1, 3, and 4. Although a majority of Lincoln residents voted to keep the MCAS graduation requirement, the the rest of the state in aggregate voted to eliminate it. Question 5 was soundly defeated statewide, but Lincoln voted against the measure by the narrowest of margins — just five votes.
