Voter ID & Voting By Mail

All voters are required to provide ID when voting by mail.

ID is required with application to vote by mail.

Info here on what qualifies as valid ID. When you apply for a ballot by mail, you must include your in-state ID number, the last 4 digits of your social security number, or a photocopy of a valid ID with your application. No ID needs to be submitted with the absentee ballot, but the signature on the ballot must match the signature on the voter registration form.

If you are voting and are asked to provide a voter ID but do not have one, you can vote using a provisional ballot.
