Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsHave you verified your voter registration? I moved in March
and mailed in a new voter registration. Hadn't received any verification back in the mail, so I just went on-line and discovered that I am now registered to vote in my new county of residence.
I live in NC and I verified my voter registration by going to the NC Board of Elections on-line and filling out my name in the voter search page. There I was!
Told me where my new polling place is for the May 8th primary, too.
If you have recently moved--or are planning to move before the fall election-- make sure to re-register to vote and then check to see that your registration has been received.

(4,940 posts)Alaska is pretty easy, we have both Motor Voter and PFD (Permanent Fund Dividend) that do automatic registration; card is mailed. You can also IF YOU HAVE STATE ID or DL, register by fax, email or online.
I also really like our state Voter Information pages - clear and not all that concise, cuz hey, lawyers - but if you are a volunteer to assist in registration, even someone in remote areas that are ESL! can be a blast! Some villages seem standoffish, but heck if everyone doesn't warm up to a cooler full of Pepsi and iced coffees, and it's like fish in a barrel - ALL folks eligible sign up (not all vote, but hey...)
