If you do not have any of these forms of identification, but you are a registered voter, you can still vote by using a provisional ballot. 
Request and complete the provisional ballot. To ensure your vote is counted, do the following:
  1. Fill out the provisional ballot and ballot envelope COMPLETELY. 
  2. Make sure two (2) Election Judges - one Democrat and one Republican - sign your ballot.
  3. Sign your name.

Your vote will count if you return to your polling location on Election Day with an approved photo ID OR the signature on your provisional ballot envelope is determined by your Local Election Authority to match the signature on your voter registration record.

Keep the stub from your provisional ballot envelope. Follow the instructions on the stub to verify your vote was counted.




Because these changes to voter ID law are recent,
many citizens are unaware. 

Please share this information with friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues.
Let's get our community ready to VOTE.

  • Absentee ballot information
  • Ballot measure information (where applicable)
  • Early voting options (where applicable)
  • Election dates
  • Factual data on candidates in various federal, state and local races
  • General information on such topics as how to watch debates with a critical eye
  • ID requirements
  • Polling place locations
  • Registration deadlines
  • Voter qualifications
  • Voter registration forms
  • Voting machines



An important component of VOTE411.org is the polling place locator, which enables users to type in their address and retrieve the poll location for the voting precinct in which that address is located. The League has found that this is among the most sought after information in the immediate days leading up to, and on, Election Day.
