Registering
You can register in North Carolina if you are a U.S. citizen, will be 18 by the general election, and have lived in North Carolina and your precinct for 30 days before the election, according to the county’s registration page. People convicted of a felony can register once their citizenship rights are restored.
The regular deadline for Nov. 3 was Oct. 9. During early voting you can still register and vote the same day: you attest to your eligibility and show proof of where you live, such as a driver’s license or other government document, a paycheck, a utility bill or a bank statement with your name and current address, the State Board says. Voters who moved within Iredell County can update their address at check-in.
Photo ID
Voters are asked to show photo ID; a driver’s license is the most common. If you do not have one, you can come back with it, vote a provisional ballot and bring an acceptable ID to the elections office by noon Tuesday, Nov. 10, or fill out a Photo ID Exception Form at the polls. The county board issues free voter photo IDs to registered voters through the end of early voting. Details are on the state’s Voter ID page.
Voting by mail
Request a ballot through the state portal or the county’s printable form by 5 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 20. Return it by mail, to an election official at any early voting site in Iredell County, or at the Board of Elections, by 7:30 p.m. Nov. 3.
On Election Day
Polls are open 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. You must vote at your assigned polling place; look it up with the state’s lookup or the county’s polling place list (PDF). There is no voting at the Board of Elections office that day.
What is on the ballot
Your sample ballot shows every race for your address. The county posts the offices to be elected, a candidate list and the legislature’s explanation of the 2026 constitutional amendments. The State Board’s judicial voter guide covers the N.C. Supreme Court and Court of Appeals races. Mooresville’s own voting wards are on the town’s ward map.
What this means for you
- Vote early at the War Memorial Building or the Lake Norman Fire Department, any day the sites are open.
