To Require Voters to Present Photo Identification in Order to Vote
Proposed by Joint Resolution of the General Assembly
To enact Section 5 of Article V of the Constitution of the State of Ohio
A majority yes vote is required for the adoption of Section 5.
This proposed amendment would:
- Require voters to present an approved form of government-issued photo identification in order to vote.
- Allow state law to provide for an alternative method of verifying a voter’s identity for a voter who has a sincere religious objection to being photographed and, therefore, does not possess an approved form of government-issued photo identification.
- Require that voters who do not vote in person provide an approved form of government-issued photo identification, unless the law authorizes those persons to vote by providing a signature and at least one other specified unique identifier.
- Define approved forms of government-issued photo identification as an unexpired Ohio driver license or state identification card; a United States passport or passport card; or a United States military identification card, Ohio National Guard identification card, or United States Department of Veterans Affairs identification card.
If approved, the amendment shall take effect immediately.
A "YES" vote means approval of the amendment.
A "NO" vote means disapproval of the amendment.
Shall the amendment be approved?
