If you are a U.S. Citizen in the armed forces or living abroad and wish to register to vote please contact the Federal Voting Assistance Program.

To register in Texas you must:

• be a resident of the county in which the application for registration is made
• be at least 17 years and 10 months old (you must be 18 to vote)
• not be finally convicted of a felony, or if a convicted felon, you must have fully discharged your punishment, including any incarceration, parole, supervision, period of probation or be pardoned.
• have not been declared mentally incompetent by final judgment of a court of law.

In order to complete this process you will need to be able to print out the form, sign it, and send it in. If you do not have a printer we suggest you contact your Elections Division and ask them to mail a form to you, which you can then fill out and mail back.
