For those who want to vote next month and haven’t registered, time is running out.

Monday is the last day to register for the Nov. 8 general election, according to Alabama Secretary of State John H. Merrill.

Alabamians can register to vote online at alabamavotes.gov or through the mobile app “Vote for Alabama.” All online registrations must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. Oct. 24 to be eligible to vote.

Also, eligible Alabamians have until Monday to postmark their voter registration applications or until the close of business that day to return their physical registration applications to their local Board of Registrars’ Office.

To register to vote in Alabama, you must be a U.S. citizen and an Alabama resident who is 18 years or older on or by Election Day. The prospective voter cannot be convicted of a disqualifying felony nor declared mentally incompetent.

For questions or concerns, contact the Secretary of State’s Elections Division at 334-242-7210 or your county Board of Registrars’ Office.
