    What is a volunteer deputy registrar (VDR)?

    Volunteer Deputy Registrars are persons certified to help register voters. They are appointed by county voter registrars with helping increase voter registration in the state.

        • Totally mentally incapacitated; or
        • Partially mentally incapacitated without the right to vote;
