Happy Labor Day, Andover! Here's our daily rundown of everything happening in town for Monday, Sept. 5, courtesy of Andover News.

Weather: Cooler with a high of 68. Mostly cloudy with showers, thunderstorms. Tonight: low of 60, 91% chance of rain.

Tomorrow is the Massachusetts state primary: A Journal of Politics study concluded residents of towns with weak local news coverage are less likely to be politically engaged and more likely to vote along strict party lines, retreating onto "tribal corners." They're also less likely to share opinions about candidates for office. Help support local, independent, nonpartisan news in Andover. Consider making a pledge to support the Andover News Kickstarter and make sure we can continue to offer local, independent news in Andover.
