Voting in Roanoke

Check Voter Registration

Check Your Registration

Make sure you are vote ready. Check your voter registration status at least four (4) times a year; make sure that it reads "Active". When your voter registration status is Active, that means that you are "vote ready" for any Virginia election.

Restoration of Rights

In Virginia you are eligible to have your voting rights restored upon release from prison. The Secretary of the Commonwealth maintains a list of people who have had their rights restored; if you are not already on that list, you can request restoration from the same page.

The Roanoke Democracy Center held a John Lewis Voting Rights Vigil on July 17th. Speakers from Roanoke Branch NAACP and Represent.us joined the team to support voting rights and voting rights legislation (For the People Act, DC Statehood and John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act).
