For additional information or for any issues you may have with voting visit our Voter Information Center or call 1-877-US-4-OBAMA (877-874-6226). Answers to some of the most common voting questions are below:
Do I need to bring ID with me when I go vote?
You do not need identification at the polling place unless you registered by mail and did not provide proper ID with your registration.
Proper identification when registering by mail is either a copy of a current and valid photo ID or a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or government document that states your name and address.
If you registered by mail and did not provide identity documentation, you will need to show ID when you go to vote.
What time will the polls be open on November 4?
Rhode Island polls are open from 7 AM - 9 PM.
What about voters with disabilities?
If you are blind, disabled or unable to read or write, you may be given assistance at the polls by a person of your choice as long as that person is not your employer or an agent of your employer, or an officer or agent of your union.
Every polling place is situated in a building which can be entered and exited by persons who are disabled or elderly. If you are disabled or elderly and the assigned polling place is inaccessible, the local board must provide alternative means for you to cast a ballot on Election Day. DRE machines will be available for the handicapped.
