Voting in Vermont

If you've voted in Vermont before or if you registered for the first time in person at your clerk’s office, you do not need to show ID to vote.

If you're a first-time voter in the municipality who registered by mail or online, and didn't provide ID when you registered, you will need to show ID to vote. Acceptable forms include:

• • valid photo ID
• • copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or any other government document that shows your current name and address

Voters without ID: If you are unable to provide ID, you may register in person at the polls and will need to provide your Vermont driver’s license number or the last four digits of your Social Security number.

To register in Vermont you must:

• • be a United States citizen
• • be a Vermont resident
• • be at least 18 years old on or before Election Day
• • attest that you have taken or affirmed the Voter's Oath when registering to vote for the first time:

> “You solemnly swear or affirm that whenever you give your vote or suffrage, touching any matter that concerns the State of Vermont, you will do it so as in your conscience you shall judge will most conduce to the best good of the same, as established by the Constitution, without fear or favor of any person.”
