LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — On Tuesday, Americans will vote on the next President of the United States. If you’re planning to head to the polls on Tuesday, here are some things to know before you go.
To cast your ballot, you must be registered to vote and there is still time to do so. The state of Nevada offers same-day voter registration. You can register for the first time or update your existing registration either online or in person on election day.
If you wish to utilize the same-day registration process, you must have a valid Nevada driver’s license or Nevada ID card and vote in person at a polling location. There are no exceptions to this rule. Any other form of identification, including a military ID or passport, cannot be used for same-day registration to prove your identity.
Any person who registers to vote online on or after Oct. 22, 2024, may only vote in person at a polling location and must show their valid Nevada driver’s license, Nevada ID card, or tribal ID to vote in that election.

Once a person provides the required identification and completes the registration process, they are given a ballot. This ballot may be a provisional ballot which is a full ballot that contains all the same contests and measures available for that person’s precinct. However, it will only be counted if certain provisions are met and a person’s eligibility is verified. All voters can check the status of their ballot at this link.
