SINCE YOU LAST VOTED…

Since 2020, it’s gotten easier to cast your ballot in Hawaii. Here are the changes that are making your life easier:

When registering to vote…

  • You can now register online during early voting or on Election Day. This effectively means that voter registration is continuous through Election Day. Woohoo!
  • Automatic voter registration and voter registration updates are now part of your application for any sort of state ID, such as a driver’s license (bring your proof of citizenship). 

When making a plan to vote…

  • If you’re seventeen, are otherwise eligible to vote, and will turn eighteen by the next general election, you can now vote in your state’s primaries.
  • The location of your voter service centers may have changed – check your county website for more details.
