Registration Deadlines

In order to vote in the next election, your Mail-In Voter Registration must be postmarked at least 30 days before the next election. Otherwise, your registration will not take effect until after the upcoming election. If you miss the 30-day deadline, you can still sign up in time for the election - but you must register in person at your county elections department no later than 15 days before the election.

Change of Residence

If you move to a new county, you must complete a new voter registration.

If you move within the same county, you do not need to re-register, but you must request a transfer of your registration. This can be done by using a mail-in voter registration form, or by calling or writing your county elections department.

Note: You must re-register or transfer your registration at least 30 days before the election to be able to vote in your new precinct.

Keep your registration up-to-date!

If we do not have your current name or address, you may not be able to vote in the next election. Use the mail-in registration form to send your name and address change.
