Preregistration
Pursuant to 3 GCA § 3102(c), sixteen (16) year olds can pre-register to vote by completing an Affidavit of Registration. Individuals who pre-register to vote will be added to the voter listing when they turn eighteen (18).

They can register to vote and vote in both the primary and general elections of that calendar year.
Where to Register?
You may register to vote by completing an Affidavit of Registration at the Guam Election Commission, 2nd Floor, Ste. 202 of the Oka Building (241 Farenholt Ave.) in Tamuning. You may also register to vote with a Volunteer Voter Registrar, at any village Mayor’s Office, or a public high school or college campus, when a registrar is available.

If your name changes, you must update your information with the GEC by completing a new Affidavit of Registration. Failure to update your voter registration record will cause delays in the voting process on Election Day. You may contact the GEC at any time in the year if you have any questions or think your voter registration record requires an update.
