What to bring

You will need to show photo ID, or be known personally by a precinct election officer, to vote in Kentucky.

Acceptable forms include: driver's license; military ID; college ID; Kentucky government ID.

If you don't have a photo ID, you may obtain a free photo ID card at your circuit clerk's office or one of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's regional offices.

If you cannot obtain a photo ID you may sign a “Reasonable Impediment Declaration" and present one of the following non-photo IDs: Social Security Card; any ID issued by a county in KY that's been approved by the State Board of Elections and shows your name); any ID card with both the voter's photograph and name; any food stamp ID card, electronic benefit transfer card, or supplemental nutrition assistance card issued by KY that shows voter's name; or a credit or debit card that shows your name.

Voters without ID: If you are unable to provide ID, you will be able to vote a provisional ballot.
