There are no excuses for not voting this year. It's too convenient and easy!

You must be registered by October 9 to vote in the general election on November 6. If you or someone you know is not yet registered, you can find a registration form here. You can also register at public libraries, most state agencies, and drivers license offices.

Even if you believe you are already registered, visit this page now to ensure your registration is valid. Be aware that registration laws have changed and many voters have been removed from the rolls. Check right away -- that way, if you learn your registration isn't valid, you'll still have time to get registered before October 9. Protect your vote!

To request an absentee ballot, visit this page to find the link to your county. In most counties, you can easily submit your request online.
