North Carolina allows same-day registration during the early voting period. If you’re not registered, you can register and vote at the same time. You’ll need to provide proof of residency, such as a government-issued ID or a utility bill.

To check your voter registration status, visit North Carolina's voter lookup tool. This will provide information on your registration status, polling place, and a sample ballot.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 5, 2024, with polls open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. statewide. If you’re in line by 7:30 p.m., you’ll be allowed to vote.

North Carolina requires voters to present a valid photo ID. If you don’t have one, you can still vote by signing a "reasonable impediment" declaration explaining why you couldn’t obtain an ID.
