Student Voting Matters!
Are you registered to vote?
Many students are new to voting and aren’t aware of the process. In 2008, 21% of young people ages 18-29 said they weren’t registered to vote because they missed the registration deadline. 6% said they didn’t know where or how to register.
Registration Deadline
California: The deadline to register in person, online or by mail is Oct. 22. Residents who miss the deadline can still register at an election office and vote with a provisional ballot. The vote will be counted when the registration is verified.
If you recently registered online, please wait at least 24 hours before checking your registration status.
What You Will Need
To register online you will need:
- Your California driver license or California identification card number,
- The last four digits of your social security number and
- Your date of birth.
