How do I change the state I vote in?

Question

I currently am registered to vote in North Carolina (since that's where I go to school), but I want to change it to Colorado where I live during the summer since it's a swing state. How do I do that?

Answer 1

It should be fairly easy if you live with your parents in Colorado during the summer. .  

There are only two suggestions I would make.

Google colorado voter registration and read all the requirements.

Each state makes different rules for what you need to bring to the polls for voter identification, how long you must reside in the state to qualify for voter residency etc  So read it all.

2. Do it now. In some states there is up to a 90 day waiting period for change of address.



3. Call d**k Cheney-  Since the Constitution requires that the President and Vice President be from different states.  Cheney changed his voting address from Texas to another State where he owns property  to meet that requirement.  (So you know who to call if you have trouble.)  LOL

Answer 2

You must vote in your place of permanent residence.  

Answer 3

You can change your place of residence by registering in the state of Colorado. Go to www.DeclareYourself.com and use the registration form to indicate your change of address!  

Answer 4

You vote in the state in which you are resident.  If you have a home in Colorado, you may change your residency by registering to vote in Colorado and abandoning your North Carolina residence.  But if you do this, be aware that you will pay non-resident tuition in North Carolina, and could be in trouble if you do not get a Colorado driver license and file Colorado taxes.  You can't be a resident in one place for purposes of voting and a resident elsewhere for everything else.  That's fraud.

Answer 5

  Contact the licence bureau in the state you wish to vote.They can set you up.

Answer 6

You will need to register in Colorado.
