If you're voting today, your signature does the work of a photo ID. Illinois is one of a handful of states that doesn't verify photo ID at the polls. Bloomington Election Commission Executive Director Will Nesbitt said judges are told to "look for something similar that you can find in the signature." If you registered a long time ago, we suggest refreshing yours first.
You can refresh your signature in a few ways
| Who you are | How to refresh it |
|---|---|
| City of Bloomington voter | Visit the BEC; online also works |
| Other McLean County voter | By phone or online |
| At your polling place | Re-sign and re-register on the spot |
