San Jacinto County Elections Administration has received numerous contacts from registered voters recently who are concerned that voter registration cards have expired. Although the cards show an expiration date of December 31, 2011, we want the voters to know that the voter’s registration was not automatically cancelled. New voter registration cards typically are mailed out by mid-December on odd numbered years.

 

However, this year the cards can not be mailed until our office has received notification from the Secretary of State that the state redistricting cases currently in the courts have been settled and the redistricting lines are final. Tentatively, we believe we may be sending the new cards on or before February 13, 2012.

 

We encourage any voter who has concerns that his/her registration may not be active to call our office at (936) 653-5804.
