These don't work

  • College student ID

  • Out-of-state driver license or ID

  • County or city ID, including library cards

No acceptable ID? You can still cast a provisional ballot, then show a valid photo ID at the Election Commission office within two business days. You can also get a free voter photo ID from the Tennessee Department of Safety.

Check your ballot before you cast it

When your choices print out, read the paper before you cast your vote. Make sure every selection matches who you meant to vote for. If something is wrong, tell a poll worker before you cast it and they will help you fix it.
