Idaho Allows Same-Day Voter Registration in Idaho Falls-Pocatello Area
Idaho residents in the Idaho Falls-Pocatello area can still register to vote at polling locations on Election Day or during early voting, as the state permits same-day registration even after online registration has closed.

Idaho Falls Pocatello, ID, October 26, 2026 —
Residents in the Idaho Falls-Pocatello area who have not registered to vote online may still register in person during early voting or on Election Day, according to the information provided. Idaho permits same-day voter registration at polling locations, including after online registration has closed.
The option means the closure of online registration does not, by itself, end the opportunity to register for eligible residents in the area. Registration can instead take place at a polling location during one of the two stated voting periods: early voting or Election Day.
The information provided does not specify the dates or hours for early voting or Election Day, identify particular polling locations, or describe what documents residents may need to bring. It also does not state whether any additional eligibility requirements or procedures apply. Residents should not assume that details absent from the announcement are uniform across locations.
No figures were provided on how many people use same-day registration, and no officials or organizations were named. The available information addresses only the registration option and its availability after online registration closes; it does not provide further details about voting procedures or local election administration.
