Last Day To Register To Vote Is Today

Citizens can register to vote online.

May 21 is the last day to register to vote in the June 5 primary election.

Residents who are unregistered, have moved, changed their party preference, or changed their name can print out a form online, fill it out and mail it as long it is postmarked by Monday or dropped off at the Registrar of Voters office in Riverside.

Registration forms can also be found at U.S. post offices, public libraries, city clerk offices and the Department of Motor Vehicles.

The June 5 ballot includes the presidential primary as well as several local races.

Nonpartisan registrants will not be able to vote for presidential candidates in the Republican, Green, Libertarian or Peace and Freedom parties. Those who want to vote for a presidential candidate need to request a special Democratic ballot for nonpartisan voters, or an American Independent Party ballot -- or change their party registration.
