National Voter Registration Day
About this event
National Voter Registration Day
September 16, 2025
The LWVE will register voters at the Evanston Public Library (main branch) and Skokie Public Library.
We’re excited to be part of a national effort to strengthen our democracy by registering voters on this year’s National Voter Registration Day! First celebrated in 2012, National Voter Registration Day is a nonpartisan holiday that’s helped more than 5 million Americans register to vote! With the help of thousands of organizations and volunteers working together across the country, the holiday serves as a pre-election-season springboard that gets communities of every stripe vote-ready to hit the polls in their next election.
No matter what party you support or what issues matter most to you, National Voter Registration Day is the perfect time to contribute to our shared American democracy.
To register to vote, you must:
1. Be an American citizen
2. Be at least 18 years of age on or before November 3, 2026 (Gubernatorial Election). A 17-year-old who will be 18 on or before the November Election is eligible to vote in the Primary Election.
3. Bring two forms of ID, one of which must have your current address. Neither need be a picture ID. Acceptable forms of ID include:
• Illinois Driver's license
• Illinois State ID
• Employee or student ID
• Credit card
• Lease or rental contract
• Utility bill in the applicant's name
• Public Aid ID card
• Valid USA passport
