Registering to vote is a crucial step in participating in the democratic process. However, many people often wonder if it’s too late to register. This article will guide you through the voter registration and update process in Texas.
To register to vote in Texas, you must complete an application and submit it to your county election office at least 30 days before an election. You can register online or in person at the voter registration office.
If you are renewing, replacing, or changing information on your Texas driver’s license or identification card, you can register to vote online through the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS). Follow the steps on the DPS web portal to update your driver’s license information, and you will be given the option to register to vote.
You can also update your voter registration information online if you have moved or changed your name. Visit the portal on Texas.gov to do this. Click here to update your voter registration information online.
If your voter registration record is in “suspense” status, it means your county of registration has received information that you no longer reside at the address on your current voter registration record.
