2008 Voter Registration Deadlines
Last updated July 22, 2008

http://www.longdistancevoter.org/voter_registration_deadlines



We realize there are some discrepancies between the general deadline and the 2008 deadlines. Here's why: some states count weekend and holidays and some don't. We confirmed each and every deadline with the Secretary of State, so we're absolutely certain our deadlines are correct.

You can register anytime during the year. Register to vote now!

Military and Overseas Voters: your deadlines are slightly later. Learn more at the Overseas Vote Foundation.

The Repiggies are doing their best to drop you from the voting rolls as we speak.
