You must be registered to vote to cast a regular ballot at any Primary, General, Special, or Municipal Election in West Virginia. The voter registration deadline is 21 days before any election date. For the 2022 General Election the voter registration deadline is October 18, 2022.

You may apply to register or update your voter registration information online, by mail, or in person at your county clerk’s office.

In Person Voter Registration

Register to vote at our Voter Registration office, located at 400 West Stephen Street, 1st Floor, Suite 106, Martinsburg, WV 25401. Bring a West Virginia Driver’s License with you or a West Virginia picture ID card which reflects your current birth date and current Berkeley County physical address. NOTE: An address of a Post Office box will not suffice as proof of residential address.

In the event, you don’t bring a valid form of ID don’t worry – we can still register you! Just bring with you one of the following as proof of residency in Berkeley County; current utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, or any government document which reflects your name and physical address. Note: Without a West Virginia Driver’s License or a West Virginia picture ID with you, it will take 10 days for you to receive your voter registration card.
