Texas accepts seven forms of photo ID, listed on this slide. If you don’t have one and can’t reasonably get one, you can still vote.
Bring a supporting document, such as your voter registration certificate or a current utility bill, and sign a Reasonable Impediment Declaration at your polling place.
See the full ID details at HoustonVotersGuide.org.
You’re allowed to bring a list of candidates, measures, or personal notes into the voting booth.
Print them out, because phones can’t be used in the voting area. Download your free ballot worksheet at HoustonVotersGuide.org, fill it in at home, and take your time at the polls.
