Register to Vote by October 16 In November General Election

Greenbelters who are not currently registered to vote at their residence address or who need to make corrections to their voting information must do so by the registration deadline of Tuesday, October 16, if they wish to vote in the general election.

Voters who may have changed parties to enable them to vote in the Democratic or Republican Party primary elections in June must update their information by October 16 if they wish to return to their prior affiliation or choose another party before the general election. Political parties currently recognized by the State of Maryland include Democratic, Republican, Libertarian and Green.

How to Register

The options for registering or changing registration information have remained the same for several years. Registering can be accomplished entirely online by using Maryland’s Online Registration System at the website of the Maryland State Board of Elections at elections.state.md.us. Just click on Voter Registration. Those who are not sure if they are registered or who wish to ensure their information is correct can go to the same URL to have a check and make changes if need be.

The paper voter registration form can also be used either for a new registration or for changing an address, a name or a political party affiliation on an existing registration. The form is available for printing from the website and may be mailed or taken to the Prince George’s County Board of Elections, 1100 Mercantile Lane, Suite 115A, Largo, MD 20774.
