NO ID. NO VOTE.
When you vote in Nebraska in 2024, you will need a valid photo identification for your vote to count.
Here's what you need to know!
Registering to Vote
If you’re already registered to vote, you’re good. The new voter ID law does NOT change the state’s existing voter registration process.
Voting with a Valid Photo ID
The new law also allows for the acceptance of expired IDs if they are issued by the above entities.
IDs that Are Not Accepted
Obtaining a Valid ID
The new law waives the fees to obtain a state photo ID for voting if you don’t have one.
You will need to present a copy of your birth certificate or other identifying documents to your local Nebraska DMV office. https://dmv.nebraska.gov/locations
If you don’t have a copy of your birth certificate, the new law waives the cost for one copy of a birth certificate for Nebraska residents at the state Department of Health and Human Services. https://dhhs.ne.gov/Pages/vital-records.aspx#birthcertificate
Please Note!
When you go to the polls on Primary Day, May 14, 2024, or General Election Day, November 4, 2024, you must present an ID with a photo and your name.
Voting
by Mail:
If you vote by mail, you must write your driver’s license number or the number on your state-issued ID card.
Provisional
Ballots:
If you still don’t have a valid ID, you may cast a provisional ballot, but then you must produce a valid ID within a week of the election to your local election officials for your vote to count.
