WHAT TO BRING TO THE VOTING SITE
Please bring one or two forms of identification that include your signature and photo. Without proper identification, you may still vote a provisional ballot, which will later be evaluated by a canvassing board for eligibility. Any of the following forms of photo identification are acceptable:
- Florida Driver License
- Military ID
- Public Assistance ID
- Florida ID Card (Issued by DHSMV)
- Student ID
- Veteran Health ID (Issued by VA)
- U.S. Passport
- Retirement Center ID
- Concealed Weapon License (issued pursuant to s.790.06)
- Debit or Credit Card
- Neighborhood Association ID
- Government Employee ID
If your photo ID does not include your signature, you will be asked to provide another ID that has your signature.
You should also bring your sample ballot to the polling place with notes on how you plan to vote. By making your voting decisions before going to the polling place, you help keep the lines down.
