Election Day is Tuesday, November 5, 2019, and all local polling places are open from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Voters can check online to locate their polling place by visiting www.portlandmaine.gov/elections. Portland residents can register to vote on election day at their polling place. To register to vote, you must bring identification and proof of Portland residency to your polling place. A driver’s license or state identification card with the current address meets both criteria, otherwise, a checkbook, car registration, or an official piece of personal mail (utility bill, bank statement, medical bill, etc.) addressed to the applicant at the current address will suffice.
