Monday, Dec. 30, 2019 — Nelson Circuit Clerk Diane Thompson and Nelson County Clerk Jeanette Sidebottom urge Nelson County residents who made changes to voter registration while getting a drivers license since Nov. 1, 2019 to check their voter registration status.
Those who changed their voter registration since Nov. 1, 2019 while getting a drivers license are being asked to confirm their voter registration after a computer glitch arose during the roll-out of the Voluntary Travel IDs.
