[Title: Welcome.]

Narrator: Welcome to the Maryland State Board of Elections Online Voter Registration System. You can use this site to register to vote, update your voter registration information and request an absentee ballot.

[The Voter Registration and Absentee Ballot Request welcome screen is displayed.]

Narrator: Before you start, here are a few tips about navigating the site.

[An animated circle surrounds the link titled: ‘Learn more about eligibility to vote in Maryland.’ Another animated circle surrounds the link titled: ‘Are you registered? Find out here.’]

Narrator: The blue links, such as the ‘Learn more about eligibility to vote in Maryland’ or the ‘Find Out Here’ link will lead you to sites outside of the voter registration website.

[An image of a back arrow is displayed and an animated green circle surrounds it.]

Narrator: If you click on the link, remember to push the back button on your Internet browser to return to our registration site.

[The welcome screen of the Voter Registration and Absentee Ballot Request site appears. To its left is a larger example of the Welcome screen’s green ‘Next’ button.]

Narrator: Once you are finished with each page, click the ‘Next’ button to navigate to the next page.

[A blue arrow appears and points to the larger green ‘Next’ button as an example. An animated circle surrounds the ‘Next’ button on the welcome page. The blue arrow selects the next button causing the Welcome page to advance to the next page of the voter registration website.]
