  • Do I need an ID?

    Kind of. When you arrive at the polling place, the poll worker will request that you present ID, but if you do not have an ID, in most cases, you may sign an affidavit in lieu of presenting ID. There are several options for identification and they do not need to be a driver's license or have a photo. It's a bit involved, so see here for the details from VoteRiders.
