From the Dartmouth Select Board’s official minutes, posted in the town’s Agenda Center. Minutes from 2018 to 2023 are mostly scanned documents, which we read with text recognition. We check every vote count against the members named and quote the exact sentence for each vote. Most votes are recorded as unanimous; when the minutes give a split count without saying who voted which way, we show only the count. MassVoter never grades officials; votes and attendance are shown exactly as the minutes record them. Member photos: Dartmouth Week candidate profiles.
