• Pre-Registration

  Nevada youth who pre-register to vote will have their registration become active once they turn 18 years old. Pre-registration does not change the voting age, which is 18. Instead, it allows eligible Nevadans aged 17 to complete voter registration providing sufficient time and opportunity to get ready to vote. Pre-registration methods and qualifications are the same as regular voter registration, except for the age.

• Affidavit & Provisional Ballot

  A provisional ballot is a regular ballot that is placed in a special envelope prior to being put in the ballot box. It is available for the voters whose identification is not verified at a polling place. A provisional ballot may be offered to those who believe they are registered to vote even though their names are not on the official voter registration list at the polling place and those who applied to vote by mail but would like to cast a vote in person.

  Every voter who casts a provisional ballot has the right to find out from their county elections official if the ballot was counted and, if not, the reason why it was not counted.

• College Students & Voters Overseas

  Nevadans living away from home while attending a college, trade school or technical school, you may choose to register to vote using your home away from home address you use while at school or your traditional home address. Choosing which address to use when you register to vote is a personal decision. Whatever you decide, you may not register to vote in two places during the same election cycle. You may find more information here.

  Nevadans living temporarily outside the U.S., whether a student or otherwise, may register to vote and apply to vote by mail using the Federal Post Card Application.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO REGISTER TO VOTE IN NEVADA?

  You must be a United States citizen and 18 years old on the date of the election. You must have been a resident of Nevada for at least 30 days before the election. You cannot have been convicted of a felony (unless parolee pardoned or restored voting rights), nor can you be adjudged mentally incompetent by a court.

• How often do I need to register to vote?

  You are required to register to vote only once. However, if information like your name or address changes, you need to fill out the voter registration form again to keep your voter information up to date. Check your voter registration information at this link.

• Which party should I be affiliated with?

  KAGC does not endorse any party or candidate; as such KAGC does not guide anyone to vote for, or be affiliated with, any specific party. In most parts of the United States, the Republican Party and Democratic Party are two major political parties. Throughout U.S. history, 19 presidents have been Republican (including Presidents Lincoln, Reagan, Bush, and Trump) and 16 have been Democrats (including Presidents Franklin Roosevelt, Kennedy, Clinton, Obama, and Biden). You may find more information on their respective websites.

  When registering to vote, it is not mandatory for a voter to declare party affiliation. However, in some states including Nevada, primary elections are open to those voters with party affiliation, in which case you may vote only in the primary election of the party you are affiliated with.

• Am I limited to vote for the party I'm affiliated with?

  In the primary election in Nevada, only voters with a party affiliation are allowed to vote for their party’s nominees. In the general election, however, voters are free to vote for any candidate of their choice for each position on the ballot.

• What is this year's election about?

  On top of the ballot across the U.S. this year will be the candidates for U.S. President.

• Must I vote for each position on the ballot?

  Voters are not required to vote for every single position listed on the ballot. You may skip any position you do not support any candidate for, and you may also write-in a candidate of your choice not listed on the ballot. In the general election, voters may also vote for any candidate of preference regardless of party affiliations.

• What happens if I move?

  Every time there is a change in your address, whether in-state or out of state, you must update the information by filling out a voter registration form. Government agencies often mail election-related information to your address on file, which sometimes requires a prompt response. When a response is missing for a certain period of time, your voter registration may be considered inactive and is subject to elimination.

• I registered to vote a long time ago. What should I do now?

  Please visit this website to check your voter registration status, as well as the information on your voter registration. If your status is inactive, your information does not appear, or any of your information is inaccurate, please fill out the voter registration form and submit it by the deadline.

• Does voting lead to a mandatory jury duty?

  No. Voter registration and jury duty have no correlation with each other. Jury duty selection is made based on a different database than the voter roll.
