Registration is permitted up until 29 days before an election, 10 days after a primary or special election, and 15 days after a general election. You can register in person at the elections office in your county of residence or in Baltimore City. You can also download or pick up the voter registration application and complete the form using the provided instructions. Voter registration applications are available at any office of the State Department of Health, Social Services Administration, Motor Vehicle Administration, Offices on Aging, all public institutions of higher education, and many other state agencies. You can also call the Board of Elections on its 24-hour, toll-free line at 800-222-8683 and leave your name and mailing address.<\/p>\n<p>All applications must be signed and returned to your county Board of Elections or to the Maryland State Board of Elections. If you want to change your party affiliation after you are registered, you will need to submit a new voter registration application or a signed written request to your county Board of Elections. Every registered voter receives a specimen ballot in the mail approximately five to ten days before the election.<\/p>\n<p>Registration is permanent, as long as you continue to live within the jurisdiction, keep your address current with the election board, and do not let five years pass without voting. Residents can request more information or answers to questions about elections and voting from the Maryland State Board of Elections. The SBE maintains many online functions including a voter registration form that can be printed out. The Board of Elections offices on the county level are another excellent source of information.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Maryland State Board of Elections<br \/>\n<\/b><\/strong>Annapolis 410-269-2840<br \/>\nToll Free 800-222-8683<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/elections.maryland.gov\/\">https:\/\/elections.maryland.gov\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Anne Arundel County<br \/>\n<\/b><\/strong>P.O.
