When you go to vote, you should bring your voter registration certificate. If you have lost your certificate or forget to bring it, you may still vote by signing an affidavit and providing some other form of identification, including a driver’s license, photo ID, utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check or other government-issued document (such as a birth certificate, U.S. passport, and any official government mail addressed to you).
