I am registered but my account is on Suspense. What does that mean and what do I do?
• As a common practice, a Notice of Address Confirmation is sent (and an individual is placed on the suspense list) when:
o The voter’s registration certificate has been returned as non-deliverable;
o A Jury Summons is returned as non-deliverable;
o Any mailing that was sent to the voter was returned as non-deliverable;
o The voter registrar has received information indicating the voter no longer resides at the address on the voter’s record.
• If the voter returns the Notice of Address Confirmation and contacts his county voter registrar before October 11, 2022, he may be removed from the suspense list by the county registrar. If the voter does not return the Notice of Address Confirmation, he remains on the suspense list.
• A voter on the suspense list who does not vote in two consecutive general elections, will be purged from the voter list in even years in December as that voter is considered inactive. So, if you are on the suspense list and did not vote in the November 2020 general election and do not vote in the November 8, 2022 general election, your voter registration will be cancelled after November 30, 2022.
If your voter registration is on the Suspense list on or after October 11, 2022, you can still vote in the November 8, 2022, election.
• A voter who is on the suspense list is eligible to vote in an election provided that the voter completes a Statement of Residence either when voting by mail or at the polls prior to voting (within the same county as the voter’s current registration) or (if the voter has moved to a new county) completes a Limited Ballot application during Early Voting at the main early voting polling place.
• A voter on the suspense list who has moved within the same county would be allowed to vote on Election Day by returning to the precinct in which the voter previously resided and completing a Statement of Residence at that time.
