CAN I REGISTER AND VOTE IF I DON’T HAVE A TRADITIONAL ADDRESS? 

Yes. Voters in Indiana without a traditional address, such as those experiencing homelessness or living in motor homes, can still register and vote. When registering: 

• You must provide a location where you usually sleep in the county. 
• If that location doesn’t have a street address, you can describe it or draw a map and attach it to your voter registration form. 
• You must also provide a mailing address in the same county so election officials can send you important information. (A P.O. Box is acceptable for this purpose but cannot be used as your residence address.) 

Your county will review your application and send a registration card or notice to your mailing address.
