Those who are not registered to vote must do so by the end of the day.
Registration is necessary to be eligible to vote in the upcoming February primary and for the C.I.P tax in Buchanan County.
The deadline to register is at the close of business for county clerks across the state today.
There are two ways to register. You can stop by your county clerks office or go online and print off a registration form. That form must be postmarked no later than today. Find more information online here.
The registration is just as important as voting, Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan said.
“I just encourage people to go make sure their voice is heard, not leave this to others,” Carnahan said. “This is an important time in our country.”
You have to register to vote if you moved since the last election, or if you recently turned 18.
Those who want to vote in Missouri’s February 7th primary must be registered to vote by the end of the day. Those who have recently turned 18, changed the name or have recently moved must register by the end of the day to vote. Secretary of State Robin Carnahan says its registration is important for the future of the county.
In Buchanan County, voters will also consider approval of the county Capitol Improvements Tax, which holds a sunset-clause. A previous ballot question without a sunset-clause failed last year.
