Early Voting

Make your voting plan for the midterms. Whether weekday, weekend, or Election Day – every Democratic vote is needed for this 2022 General Election.

In addition to Monday – Friday, the One Stop/Early Voting period includes 1 Sunday and 2 Saturdays.  At a One Stop/Early Voting site, individuals who are not registered to vote in a county may register and immediately vote at that same site. This process is called “same-day registration.”
