To register to vote in Maine, you must be a United States citizen, at  least 16 years of age to pre-register to vote and have established a  fixed principal home in Maine. 

To vote in a Referendum or General Election, you must be registered in the community where you reside, and be at least 18  years of age. A 17 year old may vote in a Primary Election, if that  person will be 18 by the General Election.

You  can register to vote by filling out a voter registration card at your town office or city hall, through any Motor Vehicle branch  office, in most state  & federal social service agencies, or at voter registration drives. You can also download and print a Maine voter  registration  application here. Please note that both sides of the card will print on one page. 

If  you cannot print the voter registration application, contact your town clerk  to have a voter registration card mailed to you. A printed version of  the voter  registration card, with your original signature, must be kept  on file by your  town clerk, so the card cannot be transmitted  electronically.

Please note that completed voter registration cards may be hand delivered or mailed to your town office or city hall.

There is no cut-off date for registering to vote in person at your town office or city hall. If you want to register to vote by mail or through a voter registration drive, the cut-off date is the close of business on the 21st day before the election.
