When you move what updates your voting location?

[BarryAllen]

Example I moved, recently same state but I don't need to update my license for 4 years soo I'm not gonna go to the DMV and update it. Anything that triggers your voting location update

You will have to update the address on your license though?

You will have to update your voter registration. Some states allow you to do it online, in others you have to mail in paperwork or visit the office in person.

I think some places it's easier to just go to the DMV, but in my city I was able to go into an elections office and get it updated...I think I needed a couple pieces of proof that showed my new address and that's it. It was easy. Depends on where you live though.

do I have to like give my license? I assume nobody outside me can do it

I don't know how it is in other places, but in my state you update your address with the DMV/DLD and then once that goes through you update your voter registration. All of that could be done online and since my license was still years away from needing to be renewed they didn't send a new one just told me to keep using my current one.

You can do it through the DMV, but you can just go to your local county clerk/elections/voter registration office. Generally speaking, you'll need a few forms of ID. Some states may need more forms of ID than others. Where I live it's like license, birth certificate and proof of residency (i.e. like a bill with your new address on it.) If you don't update it, you won't be on your local precinct's voter rolls.

In MN I actually think there's some kind of hook up with the usps because whenever I change my address on there I get the voter registration info, even with an outdated DL address.

MN you don't need any form of ID, someone can just vouch for you.

Edit, didn't mean to quote myself

Every state is different. Learn about Google sometime.

Also if you do a Change of Address through the USPS they should prompt you to update your voter info.

It depends on where you live. Google voter registration for your particular state.
