Voter ID is now required in the State of Iowa, meaning you will need it to be able to vote Tuesday.
You can register to vote and obtain a Voter ID Card with a valid Iowa driver’s license that has your current address listed, or with one of the below forms of current, valid photo ID that has an expiration date:
- Iowa non-driver ID card
- Out-of-state driver’s license or non-drive ID card
- U.S. passport
- U.S. military ID
- ID card issued by employer
- Student ID issued by Iowa high school or college
- Tribal ID
You will have to provide additional documentation if you are using a non-driver’s license photo ID, such as:
- Residential lease
- Utility bill (including a cell phone bill)
- Bank statement
- Paycheck
- Government check or other government document
A registered voter from your precinct may also attest to your identity. Both you and the attester would be required to sign an oath swearing the statements are true.
