Voters need to be sure to bring an accepted form of identification, such as a Texas Driver License issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Election Identification Certificate, or United States Passport (book or card), to name a few. If a voter does not possess and cannot reasonably obtain a photo ID, they may still cast a regular ballot by presenting a supporting form of ID and executing a Reasonable Impediment Declaration, noting the voter’s reasonable impediment to obtaining an acceptable form of photo identification.

Just an FYI: When you go vote, you can bring a marked sample ballot or a Voters Guide into the voting booth with you.
