Do you need an ID to vote?

Get Ready to Cast Your Ballot

Every state has its own voting rules. If your state has a voter ID law, registering to vote might be not enough. You also need to make sure that you have the right ID.

Voter ID rules are different depending if you plan to vote in person, remotely, or by mail. Some states also have extra options for voters with disabilities.
