For Californians, the last day to register to vote for the November 5, 2024, General Election is October 21, 2024; see details: https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/. If you miss that deadline, refer to Same Day Voter Registration (Conditional Voter Registration) https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/same-day-reg.

For the most accurate, detailed, and up-to-date information, visit official government websites. These include:

Some people find non-governmental websites more user-friendly, but be careful to get info from reliable sources!

One widely trusted resource about registering to vote, finding your polling place, and more is nonpartisan website https://www.vote411.org/ launched in 2006 by the League of Women Voters (LWV) https://www.lwv.org/, a nonpartisan organization founded in 1920. 

For additional tips, e.g., info specific to youth and info about bicycling-specific resources, refer to our post “Vote! Democracy is not a spectator sport!

Californians, it’s quick and easy to check your voter status. You can confirm that you are indeed still registered and all set to vote, as we did (partial screenshot below). How? Go to https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/
