Washington — It’s Super Tuesday, your state is one of the 15 holding its primary or caucuses and you forgot to register to vote.
Is it too late?
In some states, yes, it’s too late. But if you live in one of about half of the states that allow same-day voter registration, proceed to your polling place.
Check below to see if your state allows you to register when you show up to vote.
Alabama
Alabama does not allow same-day voter registration. The state requires voters to register at least 15 days before an election.
Alaska
The Alaska Republican Party says it allows same-day voter registration for its caucuses. (The Democratic primary is April 6.) Voters should bring an ID with them. Polling sites may be different than usual elections, since the caucuses are run by the political party, not the state’s Division of Elections. Find caucus sites here.
Arkansas
Arkansas does not permit same-day voter registration. The deadline to register is 30 days before an election.
California
California allows same-day registration for those who missed the deadline to register by mail or online (both 15 days before an election). A driver’s license, California identification card number or the last four numbers on your Social Security card are needed to register. Find your polling place here.
Colorado
Colorado’s deadline to register by mail and online was eight days before the primary, but the state allows in-person voter registration through Election Day. All voters need to bring a valid ID. Check your polling location here.

Minnesota
