Voters in Massachusetts and Vermont will finally get their chance to weigh in on the candidates running for party nominations for president. 

 

They'll have a long list of candidates to chose from on the Democratic side but recent events have whittled active campaigns down to just five.

 

As of Monday afternoon, only former Vice President Joseph R. Biden, former New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Hawaii U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Vermont U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders and Massachusetts' own U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren are still in it to win. In Vermont, the Democratic candidates also include Mark Stewart of Farmington, Conn.

 

The number of failed campaigns is much longer, with both South Bend, Idaho, Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Minnesota U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar joining the also-rans after disappointing performances in the South Carolina primary. Those who dropped out before South Carolina are former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick, New Jersey U.S. Sen. Cory Booker, Colorado U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet, former U.S. HUD Secretary Julian Castro, billionaire Tom Steyer, former Maryland U.S. Rep. John K. Delaney, entrepreneur Andrew Yang, and spiritual author Marianne Williamson.

 

Anyone eligible to vote in the Democratic primary can cast a ballot for any of the candidates listed, but voters should be aware if their preferred candidate is no longer in the race. The deadline for candidates to have their names added to the ballot was Jan. 3 and the last day to withdraw was Jan. 10. 

 

The March 3 primary is called "Super Tuesday" because 14 states and commonwealths will be deciding how 1,375 delegates will be apportioned. In addition to Massachusetts and Vermont, voters in Alabaman, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Utah will be casting ballots. 

 

Polls in Massachusetts are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Find out where your polling station is here. It's suggested you bring an ID if you're voting for the first time, your registration has been inactive, there may be some question to your status or you have to complete a provisional ballot. Check if you're registered to vote here.

 

In Massachusetts, registered voters enrolled in political parties can only vote in that party's primary. Unenrolled voters can chose one primary in which to participate: Democratic, Republican, Green-Rainbow or Libertarian.

 

Polls in Vermont can open anytime between 5 a.m. and 10 am. and are open until 7 p.m.

 

Vermont has open primaries so any registered voter can select any one primary to vote in; Vermont is holding only Democratic and Republican primaries.
