Are you still registered?
You are registered if you voted in the last general election and have not moved, or if you have registered since that date. If you have moved, you are required to change your address with your County Clerk. If you did not vote in the last two general elections, you may be declared “inactive” and may need to re-register or reactivate your voting status.
