Coming to the Polls

You have to provide identification at the polls if your driver’s license number or the last four digits of your social security number on the voter registration form cannot be verified, and you did not provide identification at the time of your registration.

Acceptable identification is a copy of any of the following:

• current and valid photo identification,
  
• government check or official document showing name and address,
  
• current utility bill showing name and address, or
  
• paycheck or stub showing name and address.

If you do not provide acceptable identification, you will cast a provisional ballot.

You may bring papers into the voting booth with you. These could be a list of who you will vote for and information about candidates. Be sure to remove these materials when you leave.

Should you require assistance, you may ask someone to accompany you into the booth. That could be any friend or relative, but not your employer or a representative of such nor a union officer or representative of such. Up to two poll workers of two different parties can help you.
