BHI Stakeholder,
With so many high-priority issues in front of us, there has never been a more important time to be a part of the upcoming election vote. Please see the following list of resources to help you determine what your next steps should be. Also, please keep up to date with the Village Voice to find out when there may be open forums to meet the candidates and hear their positions on important island issues.
VOTER REGISTRATION DEADLINE: OCTOBER 8, 2021
SAME DAY REGISTRATION:
If a Brunswick County resident misses the voter registration deadline, they may go to any one-stop early voting site to register and vote the same day. The individual will be required to provide acceptable proof of residence before they can become registered. The Notice to Same Day Registrants provides more details, including a list of acceptable proof of residence documents. Same day registration is only available during One-Stop early voting; it is not available on election day.
