Get ready to vote

• Confirm your current Bexar County registration information is correct or learn how to register to vote.
• Submit an application to vote by mail if you are eligible.
• Learn what to expect when you vote in person.
• Obtain acceptable ID for voting.  If you don't have the listed photo ID, and could not reasonably get one, you can still vote by signing a form and bringing an acceptable alternate ID.  It's a good idea, but not required, to bring your voter registration card as well when you go to vote.  
• Visit vote411.org to see who and what is on your ballot so that you can vote informed.
•  Find a Bexar County vote center where you'd like to vote.  You can vote at any vote center in the county.
• Visit Bexar County Elections Department or call 210-335-8683 for answers to all your voting and elections questions.

Protect yourself and election workers during the COVID-19 pandemic

If you plan to vote in person, minimize crowding and lines by:

• deciding who you’ll vote for in advance, using VOTE411.org to learn about candidates and print your sample ballot with choices marked
• voting at off-peak hours—usually the middle of the morning or afternoon
• wear a mask, stay 6ft. apart from other voters, and carry a small container of hand sanitizer with you
