Celebrate Voter Registration Day with Rock Island & Scott Counties

The main election officers in the Quad Cities are celebrating your right to vote. Tomorrow, the Scott County Auditor's Office and the Rock Island County Clerk's Office will co-host a voter registration rally called, "Our Voice, Our Vote, YOU Matter."

Scott County Auditor Roxanna Moritz is also the Commissioner of Elections. She says whatever your opinions and life experiences are, "voting puts them into action."

Any resident of the two counties who will be 18 years old by November 6th, 2018 will be able to register to vote, confirm or update an old registration, request an absentee ballot, and more. 

Those who register for the first time should take a government issued ID or have the last four digits of their Social Security number. Go HERE for more details about registering to vote in Iowa.

The Illinois State Board of Elections voter registration brochure is posted below and includes details about the requirements in that state. Or go HERE to register online.

In 2012, the National Association of Secretaries of State first established November 25th as National Voter Registration Day. The voter registration rally will also feature food, music, and speakers.

It will be held on Tuesday from 2 to 6 P.M. at Lafayette Park on West 4th Street and Gaines, in Davenport.
