But you shouldn’t forget: if everyone waited until the last minute to correct their information, the waiting-in-line time would bog down the voting process for everyone. If you’ve moved from out of the county or out of state, you must re-register in your new county of residence, and you won’t be able to do that on election day. You must meet the Feb. 12 or Feb. 13 dates given above.
