Four Year Inactivity Cards
Each year our office, as required each year under the National Voter
Registration Act of 1993 ("Motor Voter"), will mail notices to voters
who have shown no activity in four years. "Activity" includes:
- Voting in any election
- Registering or re-registering to vote
- Updating your address or any other information
- Requesting a new voter card
A postage-paid reply card is sent to your address, as indicated on our voter
registration files. This card may be forwarded to your new address if you
have moved.
Our office will also send notices to voters who have
reported an address change to the U.S. Postal Service.
If you receive a four year inactivity card and the address is correct:
Check the box marked "I am the person named above and I still live at
the address listed above." Sign the card and return it to our
office. You will be sent a new voter card, and this will show up as
activity on your voter registration record.
If you receive a four year inactivity card and the address is incorrect:
Check the box marked "I am the person named above but I no longer live
at the address listed." Fill in your new street address and sign
the card.
If your new address is inside Johnson County, your voter registration
record will be updated and you will receive a new voter card. This
will show up as activity on your voter registration record.
If your new address is outside Johnson County, your Johnson County voter
registration will be deleted. This does not register you to vote
in your new community. You will need to contact your local voter
registration office to register if you have not yet done so.
If a four year inactivity card is returned to our office as undeliverable
by the Postal Service:
Your voter registration record will be placed on inactive
status. This is a preliminary step to deletion of your record.
Voters whose cards are returned to our office in this year's mailing will be
permanently deleted after the 2008 presidential election.
What if I get a card at my house for someone who no longer lives here?
Check the box marked "The person to whom this card is addressed does
not live at this address" and sign the card. The person will be
placed on inactive status. If you know the person or they are a family
member, you may wish to contact the person.
Please contact our office with any questions.
