Voters will be asked to provide one of the following Photo IDs when voting in person.

If you have one of these Photo IDs, you are ready to vote. Voters must bring one of these IDs with them to the polling place. Voters without Photo ID can get one free of charge from the Department of Motor Vehicles or their county voter registration office. Voters who encounter an obstacle to getting a Photo ID should bring their paper voter registration card without a photo with them to their polling place. These voters can then sign an affidavit swearing to their identity and to their obstacle to obtaining a Photo ID and vote a provisional ballot. This ballot will count unless the county board of voter registration and elections has grounds to believe the affidavit is false. For more information on Photo ID, visit scVOTES.gov or contact your county board of voter registration and elections.

At 10 am on Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024, the County Board of Voter Registration and Elections will begin its examination of the absentee ballot return envelopes at Fairfield County Voter Registration and Elections Office, 315 S Congress Street, Winnsboro. For information, call 803-635-6255.
