Monday is final day to register to vote in Nov. 5 election
SUMMARY: Monday is the last day to register or update voter registration for Mississippi’s Nov. 5 election, with a 5 p.m. CT deadline for in-person submissions at local circuit clerk offices or mail postmarked by that date. Eligible voters can verify their registration status online as Mississippi aims to improve its low voter turnout, which, despite having over 85% of eligible residents registered, was only 57.6% in the 2020 presidential election. The election will involve key positions, including the presidency and congressional seats, and absentee voting options are available for those unable to vote in person.
