NEW ORLEANS — In your Breakdown: how to make sure you’re ready to vote, and not on the inactive list.
Many people out there don’t know they’re on Louisiana’s inactive voter list. Inactive voters are people whose address was not able to be verified either through a canvass or a confirmation mail to your address that came back undeliverable.
If you’re on the list, you can update your address and you’re good to go. But, by Louisiana law, inactive voters can still vote on Election Day.
If you haven’t confirmed your address and haven’t voted in the last two federal elections, you may no longer even be registered. You can check that status on the Voter Registration Portal with the Secretary of State’s Office.
