Today marks the final day to register in person to vote in the November eighth election. Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin says the deadline officially hits at 4:30pm.
“Go to your registrars voters office and you can go to our website and each location is on our website or you can just call the office and we’ll put you in contact with your local registrar or voter,” said Ardoin.
Ardoin says if you miss today’s deadline, you can still register to vote for the November 8th election, online at geaux-vote-dot-com by October 18th. Residents will be able to use their audit code from their driver licenses to register online. After the system verifies the residents identity they become registered to vote.
Ardoin says as we near closer to voting residents should still examine their registration.
“I do urge people to check their registration with reinforcement and redistricting going on, they need to make sure their registration is as accurate as possible,” said Ardoin
Over 3 million people are registered to vote, Ardoin says he urges residents to plan to vote this fall.
“All elections are important and everybody needs to register their decisions at the pole, I urge people to vote early or go on election day,” said Ardoin.
Early voting for the November eighth begins October 25th and runs to November 1st.
