??? Make a Voting Plan!

Here are some quick tips to help you vote in this year’s election:

1. Polls will be open 7am - 8pm on Tuesday, 11/5/24. If you are in line to vote past 8pm, DON’T LEAVE. You will still be able to cast your vote.
2. Double-check where your polling location is. It may have changed; never hurts to check!
3. Gather your ID. Rhode Island requires proof of identification. Click here for more info, including how to get a free voter ID. Please note: If you can’t make it back to the polling location with your ID before polls close, you have the right to request this kind of ballot. DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT VOTING.
4. Is it 7:30am and your polling location still isn’t open? Or is the location inaccessible? Did someone turn you away when you presented your ID? The Voter Protection Hotline has your back: call 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683)
