Q.
What if I lost my ID or forgot to take one with me to the polls?
A.
If you are a pre-registered voter who does not have ID with you, you may cast a provisional ballot. If you are an Election Day registrant who does not have ID with you, you may either cast a provisional ballot or have another registered voter from your precinct attest to your identification. Learn more about provisional ballots and attesting on our Voter ID page.
Q.
Do I have to vote for everything on the ballot?
A.
No. You can vote for as much or as little as you would like; it’s all up to you!
