Every voter must announce his or her full name and current address and provide proof of identity to vote at a polling place.

The forms of identification that may be used by a voter include:​

• Interim ID form issued by the Ohio BMV
• A U.S. passport
• A U.S. passport card

Provisional ballots: If you do not have any of the above forms of identification, you may cast a provisional ballot.

If you do not provide one of the above forms of photo ID, you will still be able to vote using a provisional ballot. However, for that ballot to be counted, you must return to the board of elections no later than four days following Election Day to provide a qualifying form of identification. If you do not have a photo ID because of a religious objection to being photographed, you may complete an affidavit of religious objection and have your provisional ballot count.
