Texas law requires voters to present an approved photo ID at the polls, meaning voters must present one of the following before voting:
Texas driver's license issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety
Texas election identification certificate issued by DPS
Texas personal identification card issued by DPS
Texas handgun license issued by DPS
U.S. military identification card containing the person’s photograph
U.S. citizenship certificate containing the person’s photograph
U.S. passport (book or card)
Voters who do not have a photo ID must fill out a reasonable impediment declaration form at the polls and present another form of identification, like a bank statement or utility bill.
Those who are registered to vote in another county but have since moved can still cast a limited ballot for races shared between the two counties. Limited ballots are available during early voting only and must be cast in person at the Central Library polling location in Conroe.
