Description

The federal Help America Vote Act, or HAVA, which took effect in 2004, requires any new registrants to provide a Driver License number, the last four digits of their Social Security Number, or to indicate that they do not have either number. 
 
However, in years past, the state used a voter registration application with instructions that did not make clear that these numbers were required, leading some voters to register without providing a driver’s license number or the last four digits of their Social Security number. The registration application was corrected in January 2024. 
 
In 2025, the Department of Justice sued the State Board of Elections (SBE) stating it was in violation of federal law by failing to ensure voter registration records contained identifying numbers. 
 
As a result of the lawsuit, this project was initiated to mail letters to voters whose voter registration records are without a driver’s license number or the last four digits of their Social Security number. There will be a section on the letter to allow voters to provide data regarding the missing information. The letter will also instruct the voters on how to provide the information to the county board of elections, including using an enclosed preaddressed, prepaid envelope. This effort will facilitate bringing the state into compliance with a recent NC Court of Appeals order and ultimately resolve outstanding lawsuits regarding these registrations.
