Not sure if you can vote? We’ll check for you — free.

If you have a past felony conviction in Alabama, you may still be eligible to vote — or only a few steps away from getting your rights back. Many people who think they’ve lost their vote for good actually haven’t.

Request a consultation and a Return My Vote volunteer will look up your Alabama court record and prepare a personalized eligibility memo that explains:

  • Whether you can register to vote right now, or what stands in the way
  • Any convictions that affect your eligibility, with the dates
  • Any court fines or fees you may need to pay first — and the exact amount
  • Your next step — whether that’s registering, applying for a Certificate of Eligibility to Register to Vote (CERV), or seeking a pardon

It’s free, confidential, and there’s no obligation. Please include your full name and date of birth when you reach out so we can find your record.


Our staff are trained in Alabama’s voting registration laws and have access to Alabama’s criminal records database so that we can help you determine if you have lost your voting rights due to a criminal conviction. If that is the case, our staff can provide you with all of the information you need to get your voting rights restored. Our consultations are always free and we are happy to meet with you for a live consultation (by Zoom or phone call) or via email or text messaging.

This check is based on Alabama state court records. Equivalent federal or out-of-state convictions can also affect eligibility under Alabama law and are not captured automatically — your volunteer will ask about these. The memo is informational and is not legal advice.
