National Voter Registration Act
The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) is an important federal law designed to increase citizens' access to voter registration opportunities. Under the NVRA, the State has designated Voter Registration Agencies, which must offer voter registration services to each person applying for service or assistance, renewing or re-certifying eligibility, or submitting a change of address. DSS Staff will provided assistance with the Voter Registration Applications and will transmit all completed applications to the county auditor.
