LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Tuesday, Sept. 17, is National Voter Registration Day, and the Lake County Registrar of Voters Office encourages eligible Californians to make sure they are registered to vote or update their voter registration information.

National Voter Registration Day efforts are designed to ensure every eligible voter has the opportunity to register to vote or update their voter registration information in order to be prepared for future elections.

Elections staff will set up a booth at the Lake County Farmer’s Market at Library Park, 225 Park St. in Lakeport, on Tuesday, Sept. 17, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Eligible students, ages 16 and 17, can be civically engaged by pre-registering to vote. If students pre-register to vote, they will automatically become voters when they turn 18 years old.
