What is the deadline to register to vote?

Asked a year ago
The deadline to register to vote in Maine varies depending on the election. For statewide elections and primaries, the registration deadline is 21 days before the election day. For local elections, the deadline is 10 days before the election. However, if you miss these deadlines, you can still register and vote in person at your town office up until the end of business hours on the day before the election. Alternatively, you can take advantage of Maine's same-day voter registration system, available during the early voting period or on Election Day itself. It allows eligible individuals to register and cast their vote in one visit to their polling place. Remember, it's crucial to register before the appropriate deadline to ensure your ability to participate in upcoming elections.
