A Reminder That Texas Voters Must Show ID

Elections are just around the corner, and here’s a friendly reminder that Texas voters must show a photo ID to vote in Texas elections. The Canadian Record reminded Texans this week that registered Texas voters who do not have the required photo ID to cast a ballot in the upcoming election will have an opportunity to obtain and Election Identification Card in select area locations.

The following photo IDs will be accepted:

Texas driver license—unexpired or expired no longer than 60 days at the time of voting
Texas personal identification card—unexpired or expired no longer than 60 days at the time of voting
Texas concealed handgun license—unexpired or expired no longer than 60 days at the time of voting
U.S. passport book or card—unexpired or expired no longer than 60 days at the time of voting
U.S. Military identification with photo—unexpired or expired no longer than 60 days at the time of voting
U.S. Citizenship Certificate or Certificate of Naturalization with photo

Some exemptions may apply. For example, if you’re voting by mail you don’t need to show ID.
