Miss the Voter Registration Deadline?

 

Voters who missed the voter registration deadline for the 2020 Presidential General Election, can still register and vote in person at an Early Vote site or at a polling place using the Same Day Voter Registration process.

 

First time voters who are not yet registered and registered voters who moved into San Bernardino County but have not updated their address can still vote in this year’s General Election using the Same Day Voter Registration process. Known as Conditional Voter Registration in State law, this is a safety net for Californians who missed the October 19 deadline to register to vote or update their voter registration.

 

Eligible citizens who need to register (or re-register) to vote within 14 days of an election can complete this process to register at the San Bernardino County ROV office, or from Oct. 26 through Oct. 30, at any of the Early Vote Sites that will be open.

 

From Saturday, Oct. 31 through Tuesday, Nov. 3, eligible citizens can take advantage of Same Day Voter Registration at their polling place. These voters will be provided provisional ballots to cast, which then will be processed and counted once the Registrar of Voters has completed the voter registration verification process.

 

To register to vote in California, you must be:

  • A United States citizen and a resident of California
  • 18 years old or older on Election Day,
  • Not currently in state or federal prison or on parole for the conviction of a felony
  • Not currently found mentally incompetent to vote by a court
