Voter Registration

Eligibility
Any resident of Gaston County who is at least 18 years old, a U.S. Citizen and has lived in Gaston County for 30 days prior to the next election is eligible to register and vote in all elections for which he/she is qualified. Once a person is registered with the Board of Elections and remains in Gaston County, the voter is required only to keep the Board of Elections informed of any changes in the original registration.

Registration
Registration applications can be obtained on a regular basis at the Board of Elections in Gastonia, any branch of the Public Library and at the Register of Deeds Office in the Gaston County Courthouse.

Registration is available at the Department of Motor Vehicles while a person is attending to drivers license business.

Public assistance agencies have registration available for clients.

The registration deadline is 25 days prior to an election. If the application is mailed to the Board of Elections, it must be postmarked by the 25th day. If the registration is hand delivered, it must be returned to the Elections Office by 5 p.m. the day of the deadline.

Office hours: 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
