Vermont Voting Guide

Vermont has  made the election process easier and more accessible for its residents. The state offers same-day voter registration and universal mail-in voting, among other ways, for registered voters to participate in elections.

A democracy only works properly if its citizens participate. For many people, political participation takes the form of casting a ballot. Learn who can vote, where to vote, how to register, and more in this Vermont voting guide.

Am I eligible to vote in Vermont?

You are eligible to register to vote in Vermont if you:

  • Are a citizen of the United States of America
  • Are a resident of the state of Vermont
  • Have taken the Voter's Oath
  • Are at least 18 years of age, or will be 18 by Election Day

It is worth noting that Vermont is one of a few states that allows felons to vote, even if they are current serving out a sentence in prison. Felons simply have to register with their last residential address to be added to the voter list.
