Register And Vote in Your State

Each state and territory administers elections differently. For each state, you will find links to information including the state election office, local election office directory, information about registering to vote and updating your registration, checking your registration status, and options to cast a ballot. The EAC provides summary information pulled from state websites. Voters must verify summary information through linked state and local sources to ensure registration information and timelines are up-to-date.
