STATEHOUSE (Oct. 4, 2023) – Northeast Indiana legislators encourage Hoosier voters to register or check their voting status by the Oct. 10 deadline.
"Voting is an integral element of a representative democracy," said State Rep. Ben Smaltz (R-Auburn). "Hoosiers should take the time to make sure their voter registration is up to date, and not miss their opportunity to cast their ballot."
State Rep. Denny Zent (R-Angola) said Hoosiers can visit IndianaVoters.com and quickly access a link to register to vote or check their voter registration record. The state's website also provides voters with local polling locations and who's on their ballot.
"Going online to IndianaVoters.com is a convenient way to get more information about elections," Zent said. "You can update your voter registration and find your nearest polling location all in one place."
Hoosiers can also register to vote by visiting a county clerk's office and a directory is available online at in.gov/courts.
State Rep. David Abbott (R-Rome City) said to register, Indiana residents must be at least 18 years old on or before the upcoming election, have a valid Indiana Driver's License or Indiana State Identification Card, be a citizen of the United States, have lived in the same precinct for at least 30 days before the next election, and not currently imprisoned after being convicted of a crime.
"Every vote counts," said State Rep. David Abbott (R-Rome City). "It's important that Hoosier voters have the information they need to participate in elections and have their voices heard."
The voter registration deadline is Oct. 10. Early in-person voting starts Oct. 11. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 7, and polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m
