Voting FAQ

Do I need to do anything before Election Day?

Before Election Day in November, it’s a good idea to ensure that your voter registration is up to date with your current address. Your registration may need to be updated to reflect the address where you are currently residing and not where you originally registered to vote. In many states, you can’t show up to the wrong polling place and expect to cast a ballot just because you’re registered — you must show up to the polling place assigned to you based on your address.

Don’t panic! You may still have time to get your registration in. Deadlines vary by state and can be anywhere from requiring paperwork one month before Elections to allowing voter registration on Election Day.

You may need to reregister so you should check your voter registration to make sure you are still registered and you are registered at your current address. If you do not appear as registered, go ahead and reregister!

More than half the states require voters to show some kind of identification at the polls in order to cast their ballot. In other states, methods like signatures ensure that voters are who they say they are.

Each state has a slightly different rule for when and how you need to show ID in order to vote. Some states can require an ID, but don’t specify if it needs to have a photo on it.

Be sure to get familiar with the rules for your state well in advance so you have time to get the right ID documents you’ll need on Election Day.

The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge strives for a more vibrant, equitable, and inclusive democracy — one in which all voices are heard. We envision a country in which the electorate mirrors our country’s makeup and college students are democratically engaged on an ongoing basis, during and between elections, and not just at the polls.

The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge is a national, nonpartisan initiative of Civic Nation, a 501(c)3.
