Vote Early


Register

Step One: Register!

Pick up a voter registration application at your library, any government office, or download one from this site. Mail your completed application to the Voter Registrar in your county. Upon acceptance, your voter registration will be effective 30 days from registration.

Step Two: Where, when, and how to vote.

You’ll be mailed a voter registration certificate or card with your name, address, and the number of the precinct in which you’ll vote. (A precinct is a geographic area in your county.) Check your local newspaper on the Saturday before the election for the address of the polling place for your precinct and, on election day, arrive there between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. to cast your ballot. Unless you are a voter with a permanent exemption on your voter registration certificate, show your approved form of photo identification to the election official. If you have not been able to obtain one one of the seven (7) acceptable forms of photo identification because you have a reasonable impediment or difficulty to obtaining one of these forms, show a supporting form of identification to the election official and execute a Reasonable Impediment Declaration. Depending on the type of voting machine they use, they’ll provide you with a paper ballot or, for an electronic voting machine, a number or ballot activator card that enables you to vote on the machine. Easy, right?
