How to Register
Missouri's new photo voter ID law went into effect June 1, 2017. Although all properly registered voters will be mailed new voter registration cards, the card can no longer serve as their identification. Voters must have a photo ID in order to vote. A few forms of identifications that qualify are Missouri Driver's License, Nondriver License, U.S. Passport, or Military ID. If the voter does not have a photo ID, but they have another qualified form of identification, and it is determined that they are in fact registered to vote, they will be allowed to vote if they sign a statement confirming their identity. If the voter has no form of identification, they will be allowed to vote a provisional ballot. Voters who do not have a photo ID may be able to obtain one by contacting the Secretary of State's office online at https://www.sos.mo.gov/showit2vote, or they may call 573751-4936. If a Livingston County resident fails to receive a voter registration card, and they believe they should have, they may call the County Clerk's office to discuss the situation. The first election in 2018 is the Municipal Election which will be held Tuesday, April 3, 2018. Individuals must be registered to vote by March 7, 2018 at 5 p.m. This will be followed by the Primary Election which will be Tuesday, August 7th, 2018, and the General Election, which will be Tuesday, November 6th, 2018. Polls for each election are open from 6:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. Individuals who are unable to vote at the polls may contact Sherry Parks, county clerk, to make arrangements to vote absentee.
