Not sure if you’re registered?

If you are not sure if you are registered or even if you think you are already registered to vote, it’s a good idea to check your registration to make sure it’s active and current.

Sometimes voters are removed from the rolls, and you don’t want to wait until Election Day to find out that your registration is not current!


HOT TIP: If you’re not sure if your registration was processed, it’s okay to register again. There’s no penalty for registering twice at the same address.

To check if you are registered at your current address, see the board of elections lookup tool here.
