The deadline is April 15 for voters to register for the May 16 closed party primary election in Louisiana. Those who miss the deadline will have more time to register or make registration changes through the Louisiana Secretary of State’s website or the GeauxVote mobile app. The state's officials have stated that false or misleading information has been circulating on social media regarding people with an inactive voter status. Those on the inactive voter list must confirm their address before voting. The vote will be cast in a closed primary system during the election, with Republican and Democratic voters receiving ballots specific to a party.
