Find your nearest polling locations here.

To find your polling location, you’ll have to enter your:

• Voting ID, or

• Name, County, and Date of Birth

The only thing you'll need at the polls is a Photo ID.

Acceptable forms of photo ID are:

• Texas Drivers License, OR

• Texas Personal Identification Card, OR

• Texas Handgun License, OR

• U.S. Military Identification with Photo, OR

• Texas Election Identification Certificate, OR

• U.S. Passport (Book or Card), OR

• U.S. Citizenship Certificate with Photo

If you cannot reasonably obtain one of the seven approved forms of photo ID, you may fill out a Reasonable Impediment Declaration at the polls and bring:

• A copy or original of a government document that shows your name and your address, including the voter’s voter registration certificate;

• A copy of or original current utility bill;

• A copy of or original bank statement;

• A copy of or original government check;

• A copy of or original paycheck; or

• A copy of or original of (a) a certified domestic (from a U.S. state or territory) birth certificate or (b) a document confirming birth admissible in a court of law which establishes the voter’s identity (which may include a foreign birth document).

Yes, you have the right to request a language interpreter at the polls!

You also have the right to bring a language interpreter with you to the polls, if you know someone who has previously agreed to interpret for you.

Please note that your interpreter may not be:

• Your employer, or

• A coworker or agent of your employer

• An officer or agent of a labor union that you're a member of

Any interpreter will have to sign a document and say an oath saying that they will not influence your vote, only translate for you. [Read the oath here.]

Yes, you can still vote under the “suspense” list. 

Being on the “suspense” list means that the Texas Secretary of State cannot confirm your address. If you haven’t moved, or moved within the same county, just sign a Statement of Residence when you check in at the polls (or when voting by mail), and then vote as usual. If you moved to a different county, contact your county elections office to confirm your options.

You can check your status at VoteTexas.gov.
