Neither wet snow as the polls opened nor passing through COVID-19 public health checkpoints to enter the polling place could discourage Dartmouth community members from exercising their right to vote in the 2020 presidential election. Voting continued smoothly on campus throughout the day in a year that also saw a record number of absentee ballots. For public health reasons, Dartmouth had agreed to let the town use Leverone Field House instead of holding voting at Hanover High School.
