Frequently Asked Questions
What should I bring to the voting sites?
In Arizona, you need a valid photo ID that has your name and address to vote. That can include a valid Arizona Driver's license, Arizona non-operating identification card, tribal enrollment card, or a valid United States federal, state, or local government-issued ID.
If you do not have an identification with a photo and address, you may bring two of the following:
- Utility bill that is dated within 90 days of the date of the election
- Bank or credit union statement that is dated within 90 days of the date of the election
- Valid Arizona Vehicle Registration
- Indian census card
- Property tax statement of the elector’s residence
- Tribal enrollment card or other form of tribal identification
- Arizona vehicle insurance card
- Recorder’s Certificate
- Valid United States federal, state, or local government-issued identification, including a voter registration card issued by the County Recorder
- Any mailing to the elector marked “Official Election Material”
If you are an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe, you are not required to have an address or photo on your ID in order to cast a provisional ballot.
How do I vote in person?
You must bring a valid form of identification to any voting location on Election Day. All voting sites are open from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. If you are in line to vote and the site closes, you may still cast a ballot. Stay in line until it is your turn. If you leave after the deadline, you cannot go back to vote.

How can I vote early?
You may vote early by mail or in person. Voters must mail their voted ballots back by October 29, but can drop them off at designated ballot drop boxes, any early voting location in the county you reside, the county recorder’s office, and at any voting location on Election day. You do not need to wait in line if you choose to drop it off on Nov. 5.
What do I do if I need an accessible ballot?
Every polling location is required to have accessible voting equipment that can be used by anyone. Other forms of assistance that are available include curbside voting, braille, and large print ballots.
What is on my ballot?
On it, you will find candidates for the presidential, congressional, and state races. There will also be propositions ranging from the right to abortion to wages for tipped workers.
