TAX & LICENSE \/ VOTER RESOURCES<\/strong><\/p>\n

VIRGINIA<\/strong><\/p>\n

Residents of Virginia are required to register in order to vote in a general or primary election. Voters are required to be a U.S. citizen, a state resident, and be 18 years of age or older by the next general election. Registration must be completed at least 29 days prior to a primary and general election or 14 days prior to a special election.<\/p>\n

Registration can be completed in any voter registrar\u2019s office or a local library. It can also be completed near election time at special registration sites that are open at night and on the weekends such as area colleges and universities or even shopping malls. Voter registration is free of charge and you are not required to state a political party preference.
\nYou will need to supply the following information:<\/p>\n

* Your full legal name and home address
\n* The length of time you have lived at your current address
\n* When and where you were born
\n* Your Social Security number
\n* The location of any prior registrations<\/p>\n

Those who are unable to leave home because of a physical disability or a continuing illness can request a homebound registration application from the voter registrar. Once the form has been completed and mailed back, the registrar will set up an appointment for a personal visit to complete the registration.<\/p>\n

It is not necessary to update your registration unless you change addresses or have failed to vote in two consecutive presidential elections. If you move to another Virginia city or county after registering, call or write any voter registrar and ask for a transfer registration form. Remember to notify your voter registrar in writing if you have changed your name or local address since the last election. Absentee ballots are also available from the voter registrar\u2019s office.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NORTH CAROLINA<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to register to vote in North Carolina, newcomers must sign a voter declaration stating that they are a U.S. citizen, a resident of North Carolina and the county for 30 days prior to the election, and at least 18 years of age by the next general election. They cannot be convicted of a felony unless rights of citizenship have been restored. The registration deadline is 25 days before the day of the election. Forms received by the county board of elections office or postmarked by the deadline as well as agency and Department of Motor Vehicle registration transactions are valid if completed by the deadline. Applicants are notified by the county board of elections of their precinct and polling place assignments. For more information on voting, contact the State Board of Elections or your county director of elections.<\/p>\n
