register to vote, you must be 18 years old on or before Election Day, a
U.S. citizen and a Rhode Island resident. You are ineligible to vote if
you have been judged “mentally incompetent” in a court of law or if you
have been convicted of a felony and have not completed your term in
prison. You must re-register if you have moved or changed your name. Your name may be removed from the voting rolls if official mail sent to your voting address is returned as undeliverable.
