Q. We moved since the last election -- do we need to register again?

A. Yes! You'll need to register your new address in order to vote in your new polling area. Fill out a new voter registration form with your current address and new information. If the deadline to register to vote has passed in your neighborhood, request an absentee ballot from your old address.

Q. I've changed my name. How do I change it on my voter registration?

A. The fastest way to change your name is to do it at the same time you get your new Driver's License. The DMV should have a form for you to fill out a name change on your voter registration. Otherwise, each state has different forms for name changes. Use the 411.org widget on the home page to find out your state requirements.

Q. What if I can't make it to my designated polling station on Election Day?

A. One option is to fill out an absentee ballot and mail it into your state. However, this will only work if you're already registered to vote. Some states are also offering early voting. Find out what the absentee ballot rules in your state are using the 411.org widget on the home page.

Q. What's the difference between a primary and a caucus?

A. In a primary election, the voters select the candidates who will run for each party; in a caucus election, the voters select delegates to vote for the candidates who will run for each party.

In terms of primaries, there are open and closed primaries. If your state has an open primary that means that any registered voter can vote in any one party's primary. If your state has a closed primary, only those registered to vote in that particular party are eligible to vote in their party's primary.
