Re-Registering or Changing Your Information

Once you register, you are permanently registered unless you move.

Name, address or party enrollment changes can be made by submitting a new registration form in any manner permitted for a registration application.

If you move, your notice of change of address must be received by the Board of Elections up to:

• 20 days before the election in which you seek to vote.
• If you have missed the 20 day deadline, you may contact the Board of Elections for your new polling site where you will be allowed to vote on a paper ballot.

​
A change of enrollment takes effect following the first general election occurring at least 25 days after the form is filed.
