Voter Registration and Your Polling Place

In North Carolina, the  deadline to register to vote is 25 days before election day. 

Voters living overseas (such as members of the military or U.S. citizens living abroad) can register to vote via a form or online, with registration via mail being received by 5 pm ET the day before the election. Overseas voters can then request absentee ballots to vote by mail.

Citizens who vote by mail, whether because they are overseas/deployed or simply because they have requested an absentee ballot, should take care to seal their ballots in an inner envelope placed inside the mailing envelope.

People who vote in person, whether on Election Day at their polling place or at an early voting site, will generally be asked for ID, such as a driver’s license, when they vote.

Political Parties

In North Carolina, voters can choose to register as one of four political parties that have qualified to have candidates on the ballot, or as unaffiliated. During elections, party registration comes into play during primaries.

Voters registered as a member of a political party are generally restricted to voting only for candidates of that party during primary elections. Unaffiliated voters can vote in any primary, but must choose which party’s ballot they will select their candidates from.

Here are websites for the four qualified political parties, listed in alphabetical order. For the Republican and Democratic parties, which are the largest, we have included links to their county party websites. 

For the other two parties, Greens and Libertarians, we have included links to their statewide party website because, as of September 2026, neither party appeared to have a dedicated Alamance County chapter.
