When is Election Day in Mississippi?

Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Polls are open from 7 AM to 7 PM. If you're in line by 7 PM, stay in line: you still get to vote.

Where do I vote?

At the polling place for your precinct, which depends on your home address. Type your address to see your polling place, the hours and a map. More than 100 Mississippi polling places moved or closed since the 2024 election, so look yours up even if you know the way. You can also check the Secretary of State's lookup at yallvote.sos.ms.gov, or browse polling places by county.

What ID do I need to vote in Mississippi?

A photo ID. These count:

Many expired IDs still count if they were issued in the last 10 years. Student IDs and gun licenses must be current. Full ID rules from the Secretary of State.

What if I don't have a photo ID?

You can still vote. Ask for an affidavit ballot at your polling place. Then show a photo ID at your county's circuit clerk's office within 5 business days after the election so your vote counts.

The Mississippi Voter ID card is free at any circuit clerk's office. Bring something with your name on it, like a birth certificate, a Social Security or Medicaid card, or a recent utility bill or paycheck.

Can I vote before Election Day?

If you'll be at work during voting hours or out of town on Nov. 3, you can vote absentee in person at your circuit clerk's office. Bring your photo ID. The last chance is noon, Saturday, Oct. 31.

If you're 65 or older or have a disability, you may be able to vote by mail. Call your circuit clerk to ask. Once you vote absentee, you can't vote again at the polls.

How do I check that I'm registered to vote?

On the Secretary of State's site, yallvote.sos.ms.gov.

What if my name isn't on the list at my polling place?

Ask for an affidavit ballot. You have the right to cast one.

Can someone help me vote? Who do I call if there's a problem?

If you need help marking your ballot, you can bring someone. It can't be your employer, a union officer or a candidate. No one can threaten you or pay you for your vote.

Problem at the polls? Call 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683), Election Protection's free, nonpartisan hotline, or the Mississippi Elections Hotline at 1-800-829-6786.

Did my polling place move?

When you look up your address, the result says whether your precinct's polling place moved, or your precinct closed and joined another one, since the 2024 election, based on reporting by the Mississippi Free Press. The county pages mark moved polling places too.

Is this an official government website?

No. Where Do I Vote MS is a nonpartisan voter tool by MS Engaged. Polling places come from the Mississippi Secretary of State's election system (SEMS report of Sept. 14, 2026) and precincts from the state voter file. If anything looks wrong, check with your county circuit clerk or at yallvote.sos.ms.gov.

Is my address saved when I look it up?

No. Your address is looked up inside your own browser and is never sent to us. For some addresses, your browser also asks the U.S. Census Bureau's public address service to check the spelling or place it on the map. We count lookups by precinct, not by address. See the privacy policy.
