HF 3845 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain voters who register on election day required to cast provisional ballots, and conforming changes made.

This bill requires voters in Minnesota who register on election day without a driver's license number, state ID number, or Social Security number to cast provisional ballots instead of regular ballots. The law also clarifies how individuals can prove their residence on election day by listing specific documents and allowing certain employees of residential facilities to vouch for residents. Additionally, the bill defines what types of facilities count as residential facilities for vouching purposes and outlines procedures for tribal members to prove their residence. These changes aim to standardize the process for election day registration and ensure that voters who cannot provide specific identification numbers follow a clear path to voting.
