Voting Laws in Texas

AUSTIN, Texas (TXAN 24) — To vote in Texas, you must be a U.S. citizen, a resident of your county, and at least 18 by Election Day; you also must register at least 30 days before an election.

Texas does not offer same-day or online voter registration — applications must be mailed or submitted in person.

On Election Day, voters must present one of seven approved photo IDs, but those without ID can sign a reasonable-impediment declaration and use alternative documents.
