How to Register to Vote

When and where can I register to vote?

To be eligible to register to vote, applicants must be a U.S citizen, a resident of the county, at least 17 years and 10 months old on the date your voter registration application is submitted and 18 years of age on Election Day, not a convicted felon (you may be eligible to vote if you have completed your sentence, probation, and parole), and not declared by a court exercising probate jurisdiction to be totally mentally incapacitated or partially mentally incapacitated without the right to vote.

Texas law requires eligible voters to register at least 30 days before Election Day.

NOTICE: The United States Postal Service (USPS) has made adjustments to their transportation operations. As a result of those changes, some mailpieces will not be postmarked on the same day that the mailpiece is collected by a carrier or deposited at a Postal Service retail location. This may affect postmark dates for voter registration updates submitted by mail.

Voters can ensure that a postmark is applied to their voter registration application, and that the date on the postmark matches the date of mailing, by visiting a USPS retail location and requesting a manual (local) postmark at the retail counter when presenting their voter registration application. Manual postmarks are provided free of charge
