Voting Know How

You can register to vote through Election Day

Some clerk’s offices have opened satellite offices for voter registration. 

You must show proof of where you live. Documents must have your name and current address.

You can show a digital copy of any document.

Acceptable documents include:

After registering, you can vote an absent voter ballot at the clerk’s office or you can vote at your polling place on Election Day.

Military and overseas civilian voters have additional options to register.
