Anyone looking for election information can go to https://www.votetexas.gov/ to see if they are registered, view their polling place, and other voting information.

The following is a list of acceptable photo IDs at the polling place:

—Texas Driver License issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)

—Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS

—Texas Personal Identification Card issued by DPS

—Texas Handgun License issued by DPS

—U.S. Military Identification Card containing the person's photograph

—U.S. Citizenship Certificate containing the person's photograph

—U.S. Passport (book or card)

If a voter doesn't have an acceptable photo ID, they can still cast a ballot with a supporting ID from the following:

—copy or original of a government document that shows the voter's name and an address, including the voter's voter registration certificate;

—copy of or original current utility bill;

—copy of or original bank statement;

—copy of or original government check;

—copy of or original paycheck; or

—copy of or original of (a) a certified domestic (from a U.S. state or territory) birth certificate or (b) a document confirming birth admissible in a court of law which establishes the voter's identity (which may include a foreign birth document).

Provisional ballots will be available for voters without the above forms of ID. But the ballots will only be counted if the voter presents one of those forms of ID at the voter registrar's office within six calendar days of election day.

Under countywide balloting, voters may cast ballots at any poll in their county.
