Voters — Register to Vote
It's easy to register and update your registration information. Just follow the simple steps below. If you have questions, please see our Q&A page.
Download the registration form.
The mail-in form uses the free Adobe Reader. If you do not have Adobe Reader, download it here.
Then follow these steps:
Please register only if you are an eligible West Virginia resident. If you reside in another state, use Voter Registration USA to find links to your home state registration information. See our Q&A if you want to know more about eligibility.
Please register at your home address. The law requires that you register where you live, not at a business address. When updating your registration, you must register after you have moved.
If you have not already, Download the form and instructions here. The mail-in form uses the free Adobe Reader. If you do not have Adobe Reader, download it here.
Click in the form boxes to type in your current information. Mark the appropriate selection depending on whether you are completing a new registration, an address update or a party change. When you are finished entering the information, print the form. You must complete the remaining steps.
SIGN YOUR LEGAL NAME in ink in the "Voter Signature" box. We're sorry, but the form can't be submitted online because the law requires your original signature.
Find your County Clerk's address in the roster of County Clerks and enter it on the mailing face of the card. Add postage. Mail your complete form to the county clerk. Check the registration deadlines for the next state/county election.
Follow up! If you do not receive a notice in the mail within three weeks, call your county clerk to see if there is a problem. The clerk is required to mail a notice to you at the address you gave, but if the notice is returned undeliverable at that address, the clerk cannot legally complete the registration and issue your voter card.
