From the Dighton Board of Selectmen’s official minutes, posted in the town’s Agenda Center. Nearly every vote is a roll call with each Selectman named; we check every roll call against the members present and quote the exact wording. MassVoter never grades officials; votes and attendance are shown exactly as the minutes record them. Member photos: Mark Pacheco and Peter Caron from the Taunton Daily Gazette; Glen Cabbage from the Town of Dighton video of the September 23, 2026 Board of Selectmen meeting (identified by the nameplate in front of each member).
