Board of Canvassers
Welcome to the North Kingstown Board of Canvassers
The Board of Canvassers is responsible for overseeing the registration of voters, conducting elections, and ensuring the integrity of the voting process within North Kingstown. This page provides important information regarding voter registration, upcoming elections, and other services.
Voter Registration
Voter Registration or Update Information:
- New voters and those needing to update their voter information (e.g., name, address, party affiliation) must do so by visiting this link: https://vote.sos.ri.gov/
Requirements:
- To register (or pre-register) to vote, you must be:
- A citizen of the United States
- A resident of the Rhode Island city or town where you wish to vote
- At least 16 years of age (but you must be at least 18 years of age to vote.)
You may not register to vote if:
- There is a written court order stating that you cannot vote. (If you have a legal guardian, you can vote unless the guardianship order specifically suspends your right to vote.)
- You are incarcerated in a correctional facility upon a felony conviction. Once out of prison, your voting rights will automatically be restored if you were registered to vote when you entered the correctional facility. If you were not registered, you can exercise your right to vote by either notifying your local board of canvassers in writing or by submitting a new voter registration form.
