Voter Registration FAQ
US citizens who reside in California, will be 18 or older on election day, who are not currently serving a state or federal prison term for a felony, and who have not been determined to be mentally incompetent to vote by a court.
Yes! If you are 16 or 17 years old, you can pre-register anytime and will be able to vote so long as you turn 18 by election day.
You need to re-register to vote to change your party preference.
CAIR California is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is, therefore, unable to endorse any specific candidates.
No, once you're registered, you do not need to re-register for each election unless you change your name, address, or political party affiliation.
