Shit, I think I screwed up
We moved here 3 years ago from NJ and registered to vote in Cary NC where we rented. We bought in Apex, next town over but, I'm not sure if I changed my address.

Yesterday I was reading a post that registration had to be post marked by yesterday. Anyone know if I could just change my address and still be eligible to vote on November 2? That's 2 Dem votes from this house.

Sorry for the stupid question. I'm taking a lot of meds for RA and shit, my brain isn't firing on all 4 cylinders.

1. In the past when I forgot to re-register I just went to my old precinct to vote.
What address is on your driver's license? Do you have your old registration cards?

You could also just call the Wake County Board of Elections.

We are registered and I do have the voter registration cards - in the file cabinet, lol.

I'll find out my polling station - only moved one town over so maybe just a change of address is required. We're registered to vote in NC hopefully we're still wtihin the time frame for a change of address. A Blue NC, Yes!!

Whew! Hope it works. I was so proud to cast a vote for our first AA President. Never thought I'd live to see that day! Would love to see Elaine Marshall win the Senate seat. May be a long shot but...

Thanks :hug:

Thanks for the advice and Supernova's info. :hug:

One vote at a time. Next election there will be 2 more Dem Voters. My son and his wife just moved down this month.

5. Wake County Board of Elections
http://www.wakegov.com/elections/registration/default.htm

Early Voting for the Nov. 2, 2010, General Election
... Can I register to vote and vote all at the same time at an early voting site?
Yes. You must be eligible to register and must provide acceptable proof of identification in order to register and vote at an early voting site ...
http://www.wakegov.com/elections/earlyvoting/default.htm

How to Register and Vote at a One-Stop Absentee Site
... To use this process, a citizen must (1) go to a One-Stop Voting Site in the county of residence during the One Stop Absentee Voting period, (2) fill out a voter registration application, and (3) provide proof of residency by showing the elections official an appropriate form of identification with the citizen’s current name and current address. The new registrant may vote ONLY at a One-Stop Absentee Voting Site in the county of registration during One-Stop Absentee Voting period and not on Election Day ... Registered voters may also update their address and change vital information in an existing registration record at the One-Stop Site ....
