In some states, voters are not required to provide a permanent address – or any address. They can simply list a landmark, such as an intersection. “If they spend every night sleeping under the Joshua Chamberlain Bridge in Bangor, they can register to vote in that precinct,” says Maine Secretary of State Matt Dunlap. “We cannot turn down voter registration from those people because they don’t have a fixed address.”
Twenty-one states and the District of Columbia allow same-day registration, meaning people can register as late as Election Day, but Ohio voters must register 30 days ahead of an election. If they move during that last month, or start sleeping on someone else’s couch, their registration is no longer valid.
“If you move within that 30-day window prior to the actual election, you get into a more gray area,” says Bill Faith, executive director of the Coalition on Homelessness and Housing in Ohio. “Technically, you should vote at the address where you registered. If you’re in limbo, the only thing you can do legally is cast a provisional ballot.”

For those who can’t get a mail-in ballot and do choose to vote in person, a recent change in address should not prevent them from voting at the polls. In the District of Columbia and the 21 states that have same-day voter registration, a resident can register a new address at the polling place, even if it’s just a temporary place to stay, such as a friend’s house. People who have become homeless need not even list a permitted address—they can list a cross street. The federal voter registration form, which voters can use to register in all but three US states, includes a blank map with a pair of unlabeled intersecting streets where voters can write in the street names of the crossroads nearest to where they are staying. In the states where same-day voter registration is not an option, residents can vote using their old address, provided it has been less than 30 days since they left.
The US Election Assistance Commission [https://www.eac.gov/] provides the National Voter Registration Application Form for U.S. Citizens (in 15 languages) with instructions, registration deadlines, and mailing address for each state: https://www.eac.gov/voters/national-mail-voter-registration-form
