Indiana Works Hard To Ensure Voters Can Get ID

The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles license branches in counties such as Wayne that have municipal elections Tuesday will have extended hours Monday and Tuesday to issue ID cards and driver’s licenses that may be used for identification at a polling place.

Branch hours will be 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday and 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday.

These license branches will only process new, amended or replacement ID cards, and renewed, amended or replacement driver’s licenses and learner permits. New driver’s licenses and learner permits will be processed provided the customer previously has completed all required testing.

The Indiana BMV provides free, state-issued ID cards for voting purposes to any unlicensed Hoosier that is a U.S. citizen as long as he or she can provide proper documentation and will be at least 18 years of age on or before the next general or municipal election.
