⏳Check Line Wait Times: Don't Be Caught in a Crypt of Time!⏳

Don’t be trapped like a mummy in line this Election Day! Before heading out to vote, check the wait times at your local polling station. It’s the easiest way to avoid the long lines creeping up on you! 

To avoid any frightening surprises at the polls, you need to bring a valid, government-issued ID that is current or expired after November 5, 2024.

On Election Day, you can cast a special provisional ballot if you don't have one of those IDs. Your vote will be counted if:

• your signature matches the signature the Election Board has on file, or;
• you return to the polling place later in the day with a qualifying photo ID.

Brew up some knowledge before Election Day! By voting down the ballot, you ensure your voice is heard on all the issues that matter, not just at the national level, but also statewide and locally.

These sites offer nonpartisan election information and sample ballots.

If you or someone you know has a disability, your polling place will have accommodations to make sure you can cast your vote without any chills or thrills. For more information on voting accessibility, accommodations and language accessibility, visit:

Language and Accessibility Information

Voting access information, translated into a variety of languages, is available from the Missouri Voter Protection Coalition (MOVPC).
