Did you know that you could register to vote in state and federal elections through the Division of Motor Vehicles?

Driver license offices in North Carolina have a successful voter registration program that they have been running for more than 20 years. Any time you are conducting official DMV business there, such as applying for or renewing a driver license or state ID card, you can register to vote.

• You are a U.S. citizen and have been a resident or North Carolina and the county where you live for at least 30 days before the election

• You will be at least 18 years old by the next general election

• You are not registered to vote and will not vote in any other county or state

• Your citizenship rights have been restored (if previously convicted of a felony)
