§ 2020 Domicile Term Calculation

This law explains how to count the number of days a person has lived in a place (their domicile) when determining election eligibility, counting the first day they moved in but not counting the day of the election.

Key Takeaways

•Include the day you start living in a place.
•Do not count the day of the election when measuring domicile.
•The count is used to determine voting residency.

Example

Maria moved to a new city on July 1 and wants to vote in the August 15 election.

The law says we count July 1 as the first day of her domicile, and we do not count August 15. So her domicile period is measured from July 1 up to August 14, showing she has lived there long enough to meet the residency requirement.

Key Takeaways

•Include the day you start living in a place.
•Do not count the day of the election when measuring domicile.
•The count is used to determine voting residency.
