2026 Massachusetts Question 4 election results

  • Figures can change as additional ballots are counted.

Statewide results

Massachusetts Question 4 puts a law proposed by initiative petition before voters in the 2026 election. Unlike a race for public office, the ballot question does not involve candidates; voters are deciding the fate of the proposed law.

The statewide totals determine the Massachusetts result. Those figures can change as additional ballots are counted and added to the tally. The statewide count provides the clearest measure of the overall vote, while the county results show where support and opposition are concentrated.

A lead in one county does not establish the statewide outcome because the final result combines votes cast across Massachusetts. County totals also may update at different times during the counting process.

How to follow the count

The county-by-county map offers a geographic view of the Question 4 vote. Each county’s figures contribute to the statewide total rather than producing separate county outcomes for the proposed law.

Readers can compare the statewide tally with individual county results as updates are posted. Changes in the statewide margin may reflect newly added votes from one or more counties, so the timing and location of updates matter when reading the map.

The results page focuses on the vote count for Question 4. It tracks the statewide figures, county-level totals and geographic patterns as election officials continue counting and reporting ballots across Massachusetts.
