Voter Registration

Check your voter registration at any time here:

If you have not voted in either of the past two Federal Elections, please take a few seconds and use the link above to check your voter registration.  Please double check your residence address.  Your ballot style (meaning the State Senate, House of Delegate, and Municipal contests) is based on the residence address on your voter registration.  You can make changes until October 15, 2024, and update this information so it is correct for the General Election on November 5^th.  In a General Election, the candidates on the ballot are from each political party, so the political party on your voter registration will not affect your ability to vote for any candidate of any party.  Your registered political party choice only affects your options when you vote in a Primary Election.

Residents of Monongalia County can register to vote or update their voter registration address and political party by completing the West Virginia Voter Registration application. The deadline to register to vote or make a change to your voter registration for the General Election is October 15, 2024. Applicants must be 17 years of age to apply and must be 18 on or before Election Day to be eligible to vote. Voter registration and updates may be completed online at ovr.sos.wv.gov, in person or through the mail to the Monongalia County Clerk’s Office.
