Register to vote on Election Day
Voters can register or update their registration
when they vote. Voters will need proof of residence to register.
Find
out what’s needed to register at the appropriate polling place.
Election results
Election
results get reported after polls close. Both Election Day and absentee ballots
are counted for a specific precinct.
All
results are posted on the Secretary
of State’s election results website.
County elections staff work with city and school board staff to
ensure that every ballot, no matter how it was cast, is counted and verified
before reporting election results. To ensure integrity of the ballot counting
process, elections workers do not leave their counting location until all votes
are counted and reported.
