ID’s needed for November election
El Paso,Tx (KVIA) – Election Identification Certificates are available free of charge to qualified Texas voters who do not already have an approved form of photo ID, which is now required for voting in person.
Texans now have three convenient ways to obtain an EIC:
By visiting ANY driver license office during regular business hours;
By visiting one of nearly 50 driver license offices that are now open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. through November 2nd, specifically to issue EICs only;
And now, by visiting one of these EIC mobile stations, which will make it even more convenient for eligible Texas voters to obtain an EIC closer to home.
All applicants for an EIC will need to present proof of citizenship and identity.
Many Texans already have an approved form of ID, and will not need or qualify for an EIC.
Acceptable forms of ID in addition to an EIC are:
Texas driver license issued by DPS
Texas personal identification card issued by DPS
Texas concealed handgun license issued by DPS
United States military identification card containing the person’s photograph
United States citizenship certificate containing the person’s photograph
United States passport
