Eight Practical Tips for Voting

Eight Practical Tips for Voting
By C. Anthony Hunt, Ph.D.


1. Plan to arrive at the designated polling place at least an hour before voting, and at least an hour before polls close.

2. Go to the polls in groups. If at all possible, avoid going alone.

3. Expect to wait in line. Wait patiently, and don’t leave until voting.   Wear comfortable shoes, and carry a disposable bottle of water.

4. Know the exact name, address and date of birth on your voter registration. If possible have your voter registration card with you.

5. Take at least one form of up-to-date photo ID, and if at all possible carry a valid government ID. It might not be needed, but have it just in case.

6. In the event of questions or confrontation, calmly ask for and wrote down the name of the election official in charge of the voting place.

7. If required to complete a provisional ballot, complete the provisional ballot. Take the time that’s needed to completely and as accurately as possible provide the required personal information. Remember, all U.S. citizens have a right to cast a ballot or provisional ballot.

8. Remember, it is ultimately the role of state elections boards, not polling places, to verify the eligibility of those who have registered to vote, based on information provided by the registrant.
