Subject: Important 2012 Presidential General Election Deadlines
Recently, I received the following important information regarding the 2012
Presidential General Election Deadlines and I want to share this information
with you.
9 p.m., October 16, 2012 is the Deadline to Register
to Vote, Update Address information, and request a New Polling Place
To vote in the upcoming election, Maryland residents who are eligible to vote
but are not yet registered - including 17 year olds who will be 18 years old or
older on or before the November 6th General Election - must register to vote.
Eligible individuals can now register to vote or update addresss information at
www. elections.state.md.us. Applications can also be hand-delivered or mailed.
Online applications must be submitted by 9 p.m. on October 16, and
hand-delivered applications must be received by the Baltimore County Board of
Elections by 9 p.m. on the same day. A mailed application must be postmarked by
October 16, 2012. This is also the deadline for registered voters to update
address information to the Baltimore County Board of Elections.

Local boards of elections, Motor Vehicle Administration offices, State
Department of Health offices, Local Department of Social Services offices,

Most of Maryland's polling places are accessible to voters with disabilities. An
elderly voter or a voter with a disability who is assigned to an inaccessible
polling place may ask to be reassigned to an accessible polling place. This
request must be submitted in writing by 9 p.m. on Tuesday, October 16, 2012. The
form to request a new polling place is available at
www.elections.state.md.us (type
"polling place reassignment" in the Search field). On receipt of a timely
request, the Baltimore County Board of Elections will determine if there is an
accessible polling place with the same ballot as the voter's home precinct and
notify the voter of the status of his or her request.
On State Board of Elections' website, a voter can also verify his or her voter
registration status and find out if his or her assigned polling place is
accessible. To find this information, a voter can visit
www.elections.state.md.us and
click on the "Look up your voter registration" box.
The 2012 Presidential General Election is Tuesday, November 6, 2012. Starting
the 2nd Saturday before the election through the Thursday before the election,
