STATEHOUSE (Oct. 5, 2023) – St. Joseph County legislators encourage Hoosier voters to register or check their voting status by the Oct. 10 deadline.
"It's important for Hoosiers to go out and make their voices heard by voting," said State Rep. Dale DeVon (R-Granger). "I encourage everyone who is eligible to vote to make sure they fulfill their civic duty."
State Rep. Jake Teshka (R-North Liberty) 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.
"If you have any questions about voting, IndianaVoters.com has information and resources that can help you," Teshka said. "The website makes it as easy as possible with all the election information in one spot."
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. Tim Wesco (R-Osceola), chair of the House Elections and Apportionment Committee, 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.
"I hope everyone takes a few minutes to make sure they're registered to vote, so they can make a plan to cast their ballot on or before Election Day," Wesco said. "Hoosiers should have peace of mind that Indiana's election process is secure."
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.
