Beginning this week, county election offices are mailing early voting ballots to voters who completed early voting applications and fulfilled the new voter ID requirement.
County election offices are reporting that the majority of voters are following the voter ID requirement. Voters have two options to fulfill the new voter ID requirement during the early voting application process:
Voters can write their Nebraska driver’s license or state ID number on their early voting application, OR
Voters can submit their early voting application with a photocopy of their acceptable ID.
Most voters are choosing to write their Nebraska driver’s license or state ID number on their early voting applications. Election workers are assisting voters who have not properly submitted their early voting applications.
