If the information cannot be verified, a person is not able to move forward with submitting the application electronically. The voter will be required to vote either at their new polling location or at a central location designated by the county election commission office. If the voter does not choose to use the above application, the voter may also submit, in writing, any address change within the county to their local county election commission office.
If the voter has not updated their address and the voting period has begun, we encourage the voter to vote during the early voting period. The early voting period typically runs from the twentieth (20th) day to the fifth (5th) day before the election. The voter may go to any early voting location within their county to update their address and vote.
