Every voter must provide a photo ID that meets the following criteria, courtesy of in.gov:

• ID displays the voter's photo.
• ID displays the voter's name, and the name must conform with the voter registration record.
• ID displays an expiration date and is either current or expired after the date of the last General Election (November 8, 2020).
• ID must be issued by the State of Indiana or the U.S. government.
• In most cases, an Indiana driver's license, Indiana photo ID card, U.S. Passport, or military ID is sufficient. A student ID from an Indiana state school may only be used if it meets all of the four criteria specified above. A student ID from a private institution may not be used for voting purposes.
• If you do not have a photo ID when you appear to vote, you may cast a "provisional ballot" on Election Day. You must present a photo ID to your county election board no later than noon 13 days after Election Day for your provisional ballot to be counted. You may obtain a free photo ID from the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles if you do not have an Indiana driver's license.
• You can claim an exemption from the photo ID requirement if you are indigent, or have a religious objection to being photographed or are living in state-licensed facilities that serve as their precinct's polling place. After casting a "provisional ballot," you have until noon 10 days after the election to follow up with the County Election Board to affirm one of these exemptions applies to you.

Federal election laws help protect your voting rights and the election process. Generally, voters have the right to:

• Vote if they are still in line when the polls close.
• Ask for another ballot if they make a mistake.
• Ask for a provisional ballot if they are not on the voter list at their polling location.
• Ask for language assistance from a poll worker if they need help reading or understanding how to vote.
• Not be intimidated or harassed while voting.

Indiana Voter Bill of Rights

College students have the right to register and vote in the place they truly consider to be “home” — whether that’s their dorm room, apartment or relatives’ house. High school students who will turn 18 by November 5, 2024 may register to vote before the registration deadline, even if they have not yet turned 18.

In Indiana, you can register to vote online if you have an identity document issued by the BMV, such as an Indiana driver's license or state ID. If you do not have one of those documents, you’ll need to register by mail or at an approved voter registration location.

A new law requires the identities of first-time Indiana voters to be verified. If your identity cannot be verified, you’ll be asked to show additional documentation of residency (official mail that matches the name and address on your registration paperwork) when you go to vote.

When you go to vote in person, you’ll need to meet the identification requirements. A student ID from a private college will not meet this requirement.

Yes. People who have a non-traditional residence, like those who are homeless or those who live in a motor home, must still provide a location sufficient to allow local election officials to place the person in a precinct.

If the person stays in more than one place, the voter registration official should ask the person to designate the location where the person usually sleeps in the county. If the place has no street address, the person should be asked to draw a map of the location on an attached paper or by writing a description of the location on the state’s voter registration form (VRG-7 or VRG-11) or federal mail-in registration form in the appropriate box sufficient for the county to identify which precinct the individual resides in if the voter registration application is approved.

A person with a non-traditional residence must also provide a mailing address within the county where the person resides.

A voter with print disabilities is a voter who is unable to independently mark a paper ballot or ballot card due to blindness, low vision, and/or a physical disability that impairs manual dexterity. These voters have additional options for casting their ballots.

To ensure that voters with print disabilities can vote privately and independently, the law provides that they have the option to use their own assistive technology to mark their ballot and return it through email.

To vote via this new option, voters must apply for an absentee ballot no later than Thursday, October 24, 2024. The absentee application can be accessed by logging into the Indiana Voter Portal and selecting “Voter With Print Disabilities.”
