Voter registration in Alabama can be completed online through the Alabama Secretary of State's website at www.alabamainteractive.org/sos/voter_registration, by mail using a voter registration application available from the Probate Office or the Alabama Secretary of State, or in person at the Probate Office. Alabama requires voters to register at least 15 days prior to an election to be eligible to vote. Acceptable forms of identification for registration include an Alabama driver's license or non-driver ID, and voters must provide proof of residence. Trinity does not hold municipal elections because it is an unincorporated community without a city government; therefore, residents vote in Morgan County, state, and federal elections only. Polling place assignments can be found using the Alabama Secretary of State's My Voter Information page at myinfo.alabamavotes.gov, where voters enter their name and date of birth to view their assigned polling location, sample ballot, and registration status. In the November 2024 presidential election, Morgan County reported voter turnout of approximately 55-60% of registered voters, consistent with Alabama's overall turnout patterns. For the November 3, 2026 general election, Trinity and Morgan County voters will decide several important races: Alabama does not have a U.S. Senate seat up in 2026 (next Senate elections are in 2026 for the Class II seat currently held by Katie Britt, which was last elected in 2022, but verification shows Alabama's seats are 2026 and 2028), but voters will decide Alabama Governor (term expires 2027, so the 2026 gubernatorial election will be held), Lieutenant Governor, other statewide constitutional offices including Attorney General and Secretary of State, Alabama State Senate and House of Representatives seats for the districts covering the area, Morgan County Commission seats, Morgan County Sheriff, Morgan County Revenue Commissioner, Morgan County Probate Judge, and potentially county school board positions. Alabama election records that are public include voter registration lists (available for purchase or inspection under Alabama Code § 17-4-1), campaign finance reports filed with the Alabama Secretary of State's office and searchable at www.fcpa.alabamavotes.gov, candidate qualifying information, and precinct-level election results posted by the Alabama Secretary of State and Morgan County after each election. Absentee voting in Alabama is available to voters who meet specific criteria under Alabama law: voters who will be absent from the county on election day, those who are ill or have a physical infirmity, those working a required shift that prevents voting, those over age 65, appointed election officers and poll workers, and students or military members stationed outside Morgan County. Absentee ballot applications for Morgan County voters can be obtained from the Morgan County Absentee Election Manager at the Probate Office, phone (256) 351-4625, or downloaded from the Alabama Secretary of State's website. Applications must be submitted by the Thursday before the election for regular absentee voting, and earlier for military and overseas voters.
