Affidavit of Voter Eligibility

An Affidavit of Voter Eligibility is a sworn statement that a voter makes to confirm that they meet all the necessary requirements to vote in a particular election. The affidavit typically includes the voter’s name, address, date of birth, and a declaration that they are a citizen of the United States and meet any other eligibility criteria, such as age or residency requirements. In some cases, the affidavit may also require the voter to provide additional information or documentation, such as proof of identity or residence. The purpose of the affidavit is to ensure that only eligible voters are able to cast a ballot and to prevent voter fraud. It is a legal document, and making a false statement on the affidavit can result in criminal penalties. Affidavits of Voter Eligibility are an important safeguard in the electoral process, helping to maintain the integrity and legitimacy of elections.
