You are eligible to vote a provisional ballot if:
- You claim to be an eligible voter, but your name does not appear on the list of registered voters, and your registration cannot be determined by the voter registrar
- You have applied for a ballot by mail, but have not returned it or cancelled it.
- You vote during extended polling hours ordered by a state or federal court
- You do not present any acceptable form of identification (read below)
If you claim to be registered, but your name is not on the list of registered voters, the presiding judge shall call the voter registrar to determine if you are registered. If registration can be confirmed, and you can show identification, you may vote a regular ballot, or be directed to the correct precinct if you are in the wrong precinct.
The provisional voting process requires the voter to visit the voter registrar’s office within six calendar days of the election with an acceptable ID in order for the provisional ballot to count. Provisional voters will receive a notice in the mail by the 10th day after the election letting them know if their provisional ballots were counted, and if they were not counted, the reasons why.
