California offers same-day voter registration, also known as conditional voter registration, as a way to help ensure all eligible voters have the opportunity to cast a vote on Election Day — even if they miss the Oct. 19 registration deadline to register.

Same-day voter registration in California

You can go register to vote Nov. 3 at your county elections office, polling place, or vote center.

Some early voting locations in California also offer same-day registration if you plan to cast your ballot before Nov. 3 but aren’t yet registered.

If you’re voting Nov. 3, head to the polls before they close at 8 p.m. (as long as you’re in line by then, you can vote).

To find a polling center in your area, visit the state’s website and search for locations open on Election Day. You can also search your county’s website.

Once you pick a polling station, you’ll have the opportunity to register to vote and cast a provisional ballot on the same day.

Since you will be registering, you will need a form of identification. Any of the following work:

  • Driver’s license or state identification card
  • U.S. passport
  • Student identification card
  • Utility bill

Or you need your last four digits of your social security number.

Your vote will be counted once your eligibility and registration are verified.

If you have questions about same-day registration, contact your county elections office.
