Display an expiration date and either be current or have expired sometime after the date of the last General Election (November 6, 2018) NOTE: An ID issued by the US Department of Defense, a branch of the uniformed services, the Merchant Marine, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (or Veterans Administration), or the Indiana National Guard is not required to have an expiration date, or may state that the document has an "Indefinite" expiration date. 4. Be issued by the State of Indiana or the U.S. government In most cases, an Indiana driver license, Indiana photo ID card, Military ID or U.S. Passport is sufficient. A student ID from an Indiana State school may only be used if it meets all of the 4 criteria specified above. A student ID from a private institution may not be used for voting purposes.

Voters requesting a mail-in ballot by mail who have registered by mail and have not voted in person are required to submit a copy of their personal identification unless they provided a copy with their registration application. Examples of acceptable identification are: • Identification issued by the state of Missouri, an agency of the state, or a local election authority of the state; • Identification issued by the United States government or agency thereof; • Identification issued by an institution of higher education, including a university, college, vocational and technical school, located within the state of Missouri; • A copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck or other government document that contains the name and address of the voter; or • Other identification approved by the secretary of state under rules promulgated pursuant to Missouri law. This identification requirement, as well as the notary requirement for absentee ballots, does not apply to overseas voters, those on active military duty or members of their immediate family living with them or voters who are permanently disabled and their caregivers.

Some new voters who registered by mail may receive a notice with their ballot requiring them to include a copy of their ID. Any of the following are acceptable: • A current and valid photo ID (for example a driver’s license); • or a current utility bill, bank statement, government check or paycheck that shows name and address; • or another government document that shows name and address (for example a voter card). If the voter returns an absentee ballot by mail without a copy of one of these forms of ID, the absentee ballot will be treated as a provisional ballot and counted only if the voter provides a copy of ID to the electoral board by the deadline applicable to all voters.

You must have an Idaho Driver’s License or Identification Card and the Last 4 digits of your Social Security Number to complete the Online Absentee Ballot Request.

Things to look out for: An Illinois law includes a cure provision allowing voters to correct an issue with their absentee ballot. When an election judge rejects an absentee ballot because of a signature discrepancy or for some other reason (e.g., an improperly sealed return envelope), election officials are required to notify the voter by mail within two days of the rejection. The voter has until 14 days after the day of the election to contact local election authorities and resolve the issue.

Things to look out for: At this time, only five states have the kind of restrictive regulations Texas has. While you may not be able to vote absentee by mail, any registered voter may vote early in person. This isn't a perfect solution, or even the type of protection forty-five other states are providing their residents, but it's better than standing in line for hours on election day. Texas blocks referral links on this website. Indiana and West Virginia also block a few. The other forty-seven states block none.

Technically, applications must be received by noon the day before Election Day (November 2, 2020) To avoid delays within the election office and the postal service, we recommend you send it immediately and no later than the middle of October. Ballots will be available after October 2, 2020. You may pick one up when you drop off your application in person at your county election office. New voters must register by October 24, 2020.

Things to look out for: At this time, only five states have the kind of restrictive regulations Tennessee has. If you registered to vote by mail or online, even if you meet the requirements to vote absentee, you must vote in-person if this is the first election since you registered. Only those who are on the permanent absentee voting register or enrolled in the Safe at Home program are exempt.

Things to look out for: Mississippi usually requires an excuse to vote-by-mail and unfortunately, these excuses will be interpreted differently throughout the state because the Secretary of State has left the power to determine who may vote absentee to the local circuit clerks. There is a pending lawsuit aiming clarify that all registered voters can apply to vote-by-mail. Until this is settled, there's no way to know ahead of time if your concern over Coronavirus will be deemed a valid excuse or not. Mississippi also does not post their absentee application online. They are the only state in the country to deliberately withhold this form from their voters. Ballots must be returned before Election Day if you are voting absentee. (1 day if by mail and 3 days if delivered in person)

Things to look out for: • Hand-delivered ballots must be returned no later than the end of business hours on the day before the election. • The voter must show the same identification required for in-person voting. • Generally, it is unlawful to hand-deliver another person's absentee ballot. Senate Bill 210 created new alternatives for absentee voters to verify their identity during the COVID-19 state of emergency. It may or may not apply to the general election in November. This will be determined 45 days before the election. Read the instructions that come with your ballot. For standard absentee ballot affidavits (yellow stripe), the affidavit may be notarized OR the voter may submit a copy of a valid ID. For “physically incapacitated” absentee ballot affidavits (pink stripe) or caretaker absentee ballot affidavits (pink stripe), the affidavit may be witnessed by two people OR the voter may submit a copy of a valid ID. Many financial institutions and other organizations across Oklahoma are offering free absentee voter services to assist voters with absentee ballot affidavit verification. https://www.ok.gov/elections/Voter_Info/Absentee_Voter_Verification.html(https://www.ok.gov/elections/Voter_Info/Absentee_Voter_Verification.html)

Things to look out for: Mail-In ballots MUST be returned by mail. They can not be dropped off in person. You may have seen memes and social media posts encouraging in-person drop off for ballots. This is true in every other state, but not Missouri. https://www.sos.mo.gov/CMSImages/ElectionGoVoteMissouri/Absentee-MailinBallotSummaries.pdf(https://www.sos.mo.gov/CMSImages/ElectionGoVoteMissouri/Absentee-MailinBallotSummaries.pdf) You must get both your Mail-In/Absentee application and your ballot notarized unless you are in an exempted group (options 2 and 7 on the application). It does not say this on the standalone Absentee application that is still live on the Secretary of State's website. Missouri offers two kinds of remote voting options. Find out which is best for you. https://www.sos.mo.gov/CMSImages/ElectionGoVoteMissouri/Absentee-MailinBallotSummaries.pdf (https://www.sos.mo.gov/CMSImages/ElectionGoVoteMissouri/Absentee-MailinBallotSummaries.pdf)

It can be frustrating to learn that different states have different rules for voting. Where you live shouldn't affect your right to vote safely. If you are a South Carolina resident and you want to vote-by-mail, call your elected officials. Pressure from constituents matters. Other states have changed their requirements this year due to concern over Coronavirus. At this time, only five states have the kind of restrictive regulations South Carolina has.

Things to look out for: • Witnesses Note: For the November 2020 general election only, only one witness is required for an absentee ballot. • A witness should not observe so closely that they are able to see what votes the voter marked. What is required is that the witness sees the that the voter is voting the ballot. • After observing the voter marking the ballot, the voter's one witness for the November 2020 general election must complete and sign the envelope in the space designated as Witnesses' Certification. If a voter used the services of a Notary Public as a sole witness, the notary will sign the Notary-Witness Certification. • A notary is not permitted to charge a fee for witnessing an absentee ballot. • Any person who assisted the voter must sign and date the certificate in the proper place on the envelope. Any individual assisting a voter in marking or mailing the ballot must meet the same requirements as a person witnessing the ballot. • Once the ballot is marked, the voter or a person assisting the voter must: 1) seal the ballot in the container-return envelope and 2) complete the Absentee Application and Certificate on the ballot container-return envelope. https://www.ncsbe.gov/Voting-Options/Absentee-Voting(https://www.ncsbe.gov/Voting-Options/Absentee-Voting)

Things to look out for: • In Kansas, ABSENTEE BALLOT only applies to "Uniformed Service members, their families, and citizens residing outside the United States." • ADVANCE BALLOTS can be requested by any registered voter. • The application instructs voters to send the completed form to the Secretary of State but then gives a list of the addresses for each of the county election offices. All other states process these applications through the county offices. https://www.sos.ks.gov/elections/county_election_officers.aspx(https://www.sos.ks.gov/elections/county_election_officers.aspx)

Things to look out for: • No absentee ballot application may be mailed in the same envelope as another voter's absentee ballot application. • Upon receiving the absentee ballot application, the Absentee Election Manager may request additional evidence on the reason for voting absentee if the voter has a history of absentee voting. The absentee ballot comes with three envelopes -- one plain (the secrecy envelope), one with an affidavit, or oath, printed on the outside, and one plain envelope, preaddressed (the outer envelope). Once the voter casts the ballot, the procedure is as follows: • Seal the ballot in the plain envelope • Place the plain envelope inside the accompanying affidavit envelope • Seal the affidavit envelope and complete the affidavit that is on the outside of the envelope • Sign the affidavit and have the signature witnessed by either a notary public or two witnesses 18 years of age or older • An absentee ballot cannot be counted unless the affidavit is notarized or has the signatures of two witnesses. An absentee ballot returned by mail must be postmarked no later than the day prior to the election (November 2, 2020) andreceived by the Absentee Election Manager no later than noon on election day. (November 3, 2020) If hand-delivered, the ballot must be in the office of the Absentee Election Manager by the close of business (but no later than 5 p.m.) on the day prior to the election. (November 2, 2020)

Things to look out for: You must have a valid Alaska driver's license or state ID card and the information you enter when applying must match the information on your Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) record. If you do not have a valid Alaska driver's license or state ID, or your information cannot be validated, you may select to apply using a paper absentee ballot application form. Your ballot must be received no later than 5 pm Alaska Standard Time the day before the election. (November 2, 2020) Ballots must be witnessed. In the current pandemic, there are few situations where an official is reasonably accessible. If it isn’t easy for you to get to an authorized official, your ballot can be witnessed by anyone over the age of 18. The division just received confirmation from the USPS that postal employees are prohibited from serving as witnesses in their official capacity while on duty, due in part to the potential operational impacts.

Things to look out for: There is a witness signature requirement on the absentee ballot. However, this statement appears on Virginia's official state website: "If you believe you may not safely have a witness present while completing the absentee ballot for the November 3, 2020 Election, you are not required to have a witness present. Accordingly, you may disregard the witness signature requirement if you believe you may not safely have a witness present while completing your ballot."
