To register to vote in Missouri, you must be a resident of Missouri and a citizen of the United States.
You must be at least 17 ½ years old to register and you must be 18 to vote.
You can register to vote online, by mail, or in person by completing a Missouri Voter Registration Application at the Election Board (for the City of St. Louis: Board of Election Commissioners, 300 N. Tucker Blvd., St. Louis, MO 63101), Department of Revenue/Division of Motor Vehicles, or at any St. Louis Public Library location.
You need to bring acceptable identification if you wish to register in person. Acceptable forms of identification include a Missouri driver's or non driver's license, U.S. passport or U.S. military id. Other acceptable forms of identification include:
- ID issued by a Missouri institution (public or private) of higher education
- Copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check or other government document that contains the name and address of the person
If you've moved within the jurisdiction where you are registered to vote (for example, the City of St. Louis, or St. Louis County), or if you've changed your name, you can also update your information by completing the Missouri Voter Registration Application in person, or online at the Missouri Secretary of State's website.
If you moved between jurisdictions (say, from St. Louis County to St. Louis City), you will need to register in the jurisdiction where you now live and will be voting (again, in person or online).
You can check to see if you are registered to vote by visiting this Missouri Secretary of State site.
Voter registration deadline is the 4th Wednesday before the election - find deadlines for upcoming elections here.
