Virginia residents can now register to vote – or update their information – with a few clicks of a mouse.
The Virginia Board of Elections has launched an online voter registration system where eligible residents can submit a voter registration application or update their information.
To apply, residents need the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles customer identifier number displayed on their license or ID card. Without one, residents have to print the application and bring it to their local voter registration office.
“Electronic online registration with verification of identification and data by the DMV will increase the accuracy and integrity of the voter rolls and assist state and local officials,” said Don Palmer, secretary of Board of Elections.
