Carver Town Government
How your elected boards vote, straight from their official minutes.
2026–2027 Board · from May 5, 2026See how the Select Board votesEvery vote by every Select Board member, who showed up to each meeting, and the votes where they disagreed, straight from the board’s official minutes.
5 members · 8 meetings · 106 recorded votes · latest Sep 8See the board votes →What does the Select Board do? It is the town’s executive board. It prepares the Town Meeting warrant (the list of articles voters decide), appoints members of many town boards, hires the town’s top staff, signs warrants to pay town bills, and grants licenses and permits. Town Meeting, not the Select Board, votes the town budget and town bylaws.

Ballot quizzes use only the candidates’ own words and the official Information for Voters guide. Select Board votes come from the Carver Select Board’s official minutes; State House votes from the Massachusetts Legislature’s roll calls. MassVoter never grades officials or endorses anyone; votes and attendance are shown exactly as the minutes record them. Photos of current members: Mark Townsend and Sarah Hewins from Wareham Week (January 2026); Jim Elliman from Area 58 video of the October 6, 2026 Select Board meeting (identified by the nameplate in front of each member). Members without a photo show initials.
