September is National Voter Registration Month

Friday, August 30, 2019

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Secretary of State Connie Lawson is reminding eligible voters that September is National Voter Registration Month.

Eligible Hoosiers 18 years of age and older who need to register should do so at www.IndianaVoters.com or on a smart phone using the Indiana Voters app.

“With the Nov. 5 general election just weeks away, there is no time like the present to verify your voter registration and polling location,” Lawson said. “Voting is a privilege we enjoy as citizens and getting ready to vote in Indiana is simple and straightforward.”

The National Association of Secretaries of State established September as National Voter Registration Month in 2002 to encourage voter participation and increase awareness of state requirements and deadlines for voting.

The deadline to register or update your registration is Monday, Oct. 7.

Citizens are also encouraged to help Lawson spread the word about National Voter Registration Month by using the hashtag #ReadyToVote on social media.
