Making a Plan to Vote
Election Day 2022 is here! Remember that the state of Connecticut allows for same-day registration on Election Day.
Take a moment now to review your plan to vote.
STEP #1: Complete the Yale Votes Pledge to Engage form to commit to casting your ballot in all upcoming elections and receive important information about voting as a Yale student.
STEP #2: Register to vote or confirm your registration!
STEP #3: Choose how you’ll vote. We encourage everyone to vote as early as your state allows. Check in on your state’s rules. If you plan to vote on November 8th, enter your address here to get all the information you’ll need. Connecticut allows for voter registration on Election Day at City Hall (165 Church Street). Once you register you can head to your polling place! Find your New Haven polling place here.
STEP #4: Learn about what you’ll be voting on!
STEP #5: Encourage classmates, friends, and other members of the Yale community to vote! You can share this website with them as a resource.
