                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

METHODS OF REGISTERING TO VOTE (§ 24.2-457)

A. To apply to register to vote, in addition to any other approved method, a
covered voter may use a federal postcard application.

B. A covered voter may use the declaration accompanying a federal write-in
absentee ballot to apply to register to vote simultaneously with the submission
of the federal write-in absentee ballot, if the declaration is received by the
applicable deadline for registration. If the declaration is received after that
date, it must be treated as an application to register to vote for subsequent
elections.

C. The electoral board shall ensure that the system described in subsection C of
&#xA7; 24.2-455 is capable of accepting both a federal postcard application and
any other approved registration application sent to the appropriate election
official. The voter may use the system or any other approved method to register
to vote.
