Selective Service & Voter Registration

Who must register for the Selective Service?

Almost all male U.S. citizens, and male aliens living in the U.S., who are 18 through 25, are required to register with Selective Service. It's important to know that even though he is registered, a man will not automatically be inducted into the military. In a crisis requiring a draft, men would be called in sequence determined by random lottery number and year of birth. Then, they would be examined for mental, physical and moral fitness by the military before being deferred or exempted from military service or inducted into the Armed Forces.

To be eligible to register to vote you must:

be a United States Citizen;
be 18 years of age on or before the day of the election;
be a resident of the State of California;
not be in prison or on parole for the conviction of a felony;
not have been judged by a court to be mentally incompetent to register and vote.
Remember: In California, the deadline to register to vote for an election is 15 days before each local and statewide election day, so please register early!
