2. WHAT TO BRING
Minnesota does not require a registered voter to bring ID in order to vote, but if you’re
voting in a federal election in Minnesota for the first time, make sure you have one of
these with your current name to the polls to make sure your vote counts:
• A valid Minnesota driver's license

• A student identification card including the voter's photo, if their college has
provided a student housing list to election officials

the precinct
• A valid registration in the same precinct under a different name or address
• A notice of late registration that was sent to the voter by their county auditor or
city clerk
Alternatively, a first time voter may present a photo ID from the list below and a bill in
their name that shows their address and is due within 30 days of the date of the
election.
Acceptable photo IDs are:
Minnesota driver's license, Minnesota ID card, United States passport, United States
Military ID, Minnesota university or technical college ID, or a Tribal ID card
Acceptable bills, due within 30 days of the election are:
