Mass. Guid. Evid. 516

This section is derived from McCavitt v. Registrars of Voters, 385 Mass. 833, 848-849 (1982), in which the court held "that the right to a secret ballot is not an individual right which may be waived by a good faith voter." Id. at 849.

Section 511, Privilege Against Self-Incrimination.
