Do I have to provide secure, personal information to sign up?

Only active, eligible,registered voters will receive mail ballots for elections. Make sure your registration is up to date in Logan County (i.e have you moved since the last election or have you changed your name or want to update affiliation with a party)?
There are no precincts or polling places.
Yes. When you sign up for BallotTrax notifications, you can limit your notification hours. Access your voter profile and set your contact between hours. This will tell BallotTrax when to send you notifications and eliminate those pesky 2 a.m. text messages.
Do I have to receive notifications?
The most common mistake is using an alias to login with. Voters must login with their name, date of birth and zip code exactly how it appears on their voter registration. For example, if a voter’s first name is James and the voter attempts to login as Jim, they will be denied access. Another issue is having canceled; incomplete or inactive voter registration. Make sure your registration is active and up to date!
Can I limit when I receive notifications?
No. The only information BallotTrax needs is your first name, last name, year and/or date of birth (depending on the county requirements) and zip code. This is the voter registration information that is made available via public record under open records laws. Voter ID is only required when the above information exists for more than one person. You are not required to provide a SSN, license number, etc.
I’m unable to login. What am I doing wrong?
