FIND OUT NOW, BEFORE YOU TRY TO VOTE
If you’re not sure that the Division of Elections has you listed in your proper voting district, there’s one way to find out quickly.
Go to the State’s voter database and type in your name, and either the last four digits of your Social Security number or your date of birth, and you can find out where the Division of Elections thinks you live.
What the State has on file may not be where you actually live.
