Plan to vote in November? Register now before it’s too late!

Vancouver, WA- To avoid long lines and be ready for the November election, the Clark County Election Office strongly encourages voters not to wait any longer to register or update their mailing address.

The deadline for submitting an online or mail-in voter registration form for the presidential election is Saturday, October 4. Registering takes only a few minutes, and you can do it by mail or online at www.clarkvotes.org. Mail-in registration forms are available during business hours at public libraries, public schools, city and town halls, auto license agencies, and the County Elections Office, 1408 Franklin St., Vancouver. They must be postmarked by October 4.

Address or name changes also must be submitted by October 4 to ensure that voters receive the right ballot for the presidential election set for November 4. Registration in person at the Elections Office will be available until October 20, but after October 4 this option is only available to citizens not currently registered anywhere in the state of Washington.

For information on accessible voting options, visit www.clarkvotes.org or call the Elections Office at (360) 397-2345.
