COVID-19 REQUIREMENT: Prince George’s County lifted its indoor mask mandate on Monday, February 28, 2022. Our office is currently open to the public. Appointments are required for candidate filing only.
Important: Political district boundaries are changing! Election officials are getting ready to make changes to County, State, and Congressional districts. District boundaries are adjusted every ten years based on how the population changes. New district plans are not yet final, but they will be in the near future. Learn more about redistricting and what it means for you here.
I’m a candidate for office. How do I receive information about my new district? The last boundary map was finalized on April 13, 2022. As a result, we are currently working through the redistricting process and will begin making changes in the statewide voter registration database once the precinct and street/address review has been completed.
We expect to finish by mid-to-late May 2022.
This is an extremely detailed process that takes time and must be accurate. Please be patient and check our website frequently.
