You may have noticed that your blue and white
voter certificate expired on December 31, 2011. This date reflects that the card
has expired; however, your registration has not expired. Your information is
still captured in the system. The mailing of the new yellow and white cards is
delayed due to the redistricting of the U.S. Congressional Districts.
-
Voters who are currently
registered do not need to take any action. Voter certificates will be mailed
automatically as in the past.
-
Voters who have moved within
Cooke County will need to provide the Tax Assessor Collector’s office their new
address. The voter will not receive their new card if they do not provide the
new address information to the Tax Assessor Collector’s
office. Voter cards are not forwarded, they are returned to the
voter registrar office.
-
A change of name also requires
that the individual fill out a new application.
-
If you have recently moved to
Cooke County, you need to register to vote in this county. A voter MUST be
registered 30 days prior to ANY election.
Once the redistricting litigation is resolved,
we will be able to mail the new yellow and white cards which will expire
12-31-2013.
