US ELECTIONS 2024
Here’s how to easily confirm if you’re registered to vote in the 2024 US election
To vote in the presidential election, you need to be registered. Find out how you can check your status.
On November 5th, the United States will hold its presidential elections. Donald Trump aims to reclaim the White House for a second term, and Kamala Harris endeavors to be the country‘s first woman president. According to the University of Florida’s Election Lab, over 68 million ballots have been cast during the early voting period. Recent trends indicate that while Democrats are more likely to vote early, they only have a narrow lead over Republicans in the states monitored, with 38 percent of early voters identifying as Democratic compared to 36 percent Republican. Many states allow early voting through the weekend, so if you’re interested, be sure to visit your state’s election authority website for more information.
For those hoping to cast a ballot on Tuesday, it is never a bad idea to check their registration status to ensure there are no surprises when they head to their local polling place.
To vote in the presidential election, you need to have previously registered as a voter. According to census data from the 2020 election, one in four eligible Americans were not registered to exercise their right to vote.
