Remember, you can't vote unless you're registered! Not sure if you're registered? Check your Illinois voter registration online. If you have moved since the last time you voted, you need to re-register to update your address.

Online Voter Registration

Register online via TurboVote. Online voter registration for the general election is available until October 20, 2024.

Out of state students wishing to register in Illinois with their local address will need to complete a paper form.

Make sure to include your apartment or room number if you live in an apartment building or residence hall. 

Same-Day Registration

Same-day registration is available during early voting or on election day. During this time frame, you can register and vote at the same time. Proper identification is required.

Bring two forms of ID. Both must have your name and one must have your current address. If you want to vote on campus, one of them must have your current Illinois State University address. Valid forms of ID include:

  • Passport or military ID
  • Driver's license or State ID card
  • College/university/school/work ID
  • Business mail postmarked to the applicant (including mail sent from ISU)
  • Library card
  • Vehicle registration card
  • Lease, mortgage or deed to the home
  • Credit or debit card
  • Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid card
  • Insurance card
  • Payroll check/personal check
  • Voter registration card
  • Social Security card
  • Bank statement
  • Birth certificate
  • Utility bill in applicant's name

Students living in the residence halls: a screenshot of your current address from the ISU Student Center is considered one form of your ID.

  • Log in to your account on My Illinois State and click on Student Center.
  • In Student Center, click Profile, and then Addresses.
  • Take a screenshot of your current address, making sure your name is showing.
  • Bring your screenshot and photo ID to the polling location to complete registration and vote.

Students living off-campus: your updated address within the Student Center will also qualify as a form of ID. Make sure your address is updated there if you plan to use that as a form of ID.
