New Voting Regulation: Photo IDs

If you have a photo ID, bring it when you vote. That’s the message from Michigan election officials. Effective immediately, any voter who votes in person must either show picture identification or sign an affidavit.

A recent Michigan Supreme Court ruling revived a requirement that in-person voters must comply with the new requirement by showing picture identification or signing an affidavit attesting that he or she is not in possession of a picture identification.

A current driver’s license or state ID card would be sufficient, as would be a U.S. passport, military photo ID, a student ID card from high school or accredited college or university, or a tribal photo ID.

If you are registered to vote but do not have identification, there will be affidavits at every poll available to sign. No identification is required for those casting absentee ballots.

For more information regarding this new requirement contact the Ypsilanti City Clerk’s office at (734) 483-1100.
