STATEHOUSE (Oct. 4, 2023) – State Reps. Kendell Culp (R-Rensselaer) and Jim Pressel (R-Rolling Prairie) encourage Hoosier voters to register or check their voting status by the Oct. 10 deadline.

"Voting is an essential civic responsibility and critical to having a voice in your government," Culp said. "Utilizing the state's online voter portal, you can make a plan to cast your vote on or before Election Day."

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
.
Hoosiers can also register to vote by visiting a county clerk's office and a directory is available online at in.gov/courts.

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.

"IndianaVoters.com is the place to find everything about our elections, including all the options to cast your vote," Pressel said. "You can find out who's on the ballot and the nearest voting location in just a few clicks."

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.
