DID YOU CHANGE SOMETHING?

Did you move within your county?

If you moved from one place to another in the same county, you'll need to notify the Voter Registrar in your county in writing of your new address. (In most Texas counties, the Tax Assessor-Collector is also the Voter Registrar. In some counties, the County Clerk or Elections Administrator registers voters.) 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 be mailed a new certificate with your new address and be able to vote in your new precinct 30 days after you submitted your change. If you miss the 30 day deadline to change information on your voter registration certificate, you may vote in your former precinct as long as you still reside in the political subdivision conducting the election.
