DID YOU CHANGE SOMETHING?

Did you change your name?

Promptly notify your county Voter Registrar in writing of the change. There are several ways to do this:

  1. Correct your current voter registration certificate on the back and return it to the Voter Registrar;
  2. Fill out a new voter registration application form and check the "change" box;
  3. When you apply for or change your Texas driver license, change your voter information at the same time; or
  4. As long as you reside in the same county, you can change your information online at the Secretary of State's Voter Registration Name/Address Change website. The screen will prompt you through the process and the changes that you make will be forwarded to your county voter registrar for processing.

You will receive a new voter registration certificate 30 days after submitting your name and may continue to vote during this period. If you do not have your certificate in hand when you go to vote, you may still vote by signing an affidavit at the polls and presenting an approved form of identification.
