So you live in a US Territory and you want to vote in 2022.
There are three steps you need to take. Register, make your plan, and of course, vote. We’re going to go through the steps and deadlines for all five US territories, so you can scroll ahead to wherever you live, and we’ve put together all the links for everything you need to register and vote at howtovote.link/territories Let's start with American Samoa.
You can register by mail or in person by visiting your Election Office, until October 11th. If you’ll be out of town or can’t make it to the polls due to illness or disability you can request an absentee ballot be mailed to you, but you need to request it by October 25th. Once ballots are finalized, usually in early October, you can also vote absentee in person at your election office, and of course, you can vote at your polling place on election day, November 8th, from 6am to 6pm. If you live in Guam you can register online or in person by visiting your Election Commission office, Motor Vehicle Division office, or Mayor’s office, until October 28th.
If you’ll be out of town or have a disability that prevents you from voting in person, you can request an absentee ballot be mailed to you by November 5th. You can also vote absentee in person at your election office from October 10th through November 3rd, otherwise you can vote at your polling place on election day, November 8th, from 7am to 8pm.

There’s no general election for you this year, but you can participate in special municipal elections. We’ve linked a calendar for all their dates and deadlines.

Figure out when you’re going to register, how you’re going to vote, where you need to go, what time you’re going to vote, and what ID you’re going to bring if you need one. Then you just need to follow the plan, and go vote on or before November 8th. If you want to know everything that you can vote for ahead of time, you can find a sample ballot at your local election authority website so you have time to research candidates and make your decisions.
