10. Yeah here in Ohio
if you don't move and you vote regularly you don't ever have to worry about registration. Is it the same way everywhere?

11. Here, if you don't vote in the last election, then they
Edited on Mon Dec-31-07 12:25 PM by Breeze54
send a "census" form (may be a different form in other places) to your house
for you to return to the town clerk, to verify that you still live in the town.

But I didn't send it back once and was still able to vote in the next election though.

I usually check with my voter registrar anyway, to be sure my name is still there.

That's how some places kick people off the voter roles. People should verify that
they're still on the roles, especially for this election (primary) and for November!

12. We only have to register once, right?
I voted in the 2006 election here, so I do not believe I need to do anything to vote in Feb.

14. You should check anyway if you didn't vote in any state or local elections.
To be on the safe side. :hi:

13. I am such a dork that I registered three days after my 18th birthday.
:P I've always kept my voter registration current wherever I've lived. I'm goofy that way. :rofl:

18. Hey... in reply #11, I spoke about a census form to verify my voter reg. and
guess what? I got it in the mail today!! :crazy:

It says --

Please sign and respond within ten (10) days
Failure to respond to this mailing shall result in removal from the active voter list
and may result in removal from the voter registration roles.


But the envelope is not dated nor is the form and I also got mail post dated Dec. 17th! (I hate my temp mailman!) :grr:

Looks like I'll have to go to the registrar in person and verify!!
