Two forms of identification are required when registering to vote, one of which must show your current residential address.
If you register by mail, sufficient proof of identity is fulfilled by submission of your driver’s license number or state identification card number.
If you don’t have either of those, verification by one of the following will be required:
- the last 4 digits of your Social Security Number
- a copy of a current and valid photo ID
- a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check, or other governmental document that shows your name and address
You may also demonstrate sufficient proof of identity by submission of a photo ID issued by a college or university along with either a copy of the applicant’s contract or lease for a residence or a postmarked mail delivered to the applicant at his or her current address.
If you register by mail, you must vote in person the first time you vote unless you submit your driver license number or state ID number, the last four digits of your social security number or one of the forms of ID listed above.
