The first election requiring voter ID will be the May 14, 2024 statewide primary election.
All special and statewide elections after this date will require voter ID. No special election prior to May 14, 2024 will require voter ID.
Preliminary voter ID education material and events
The Secretary of State's office was at the 2023 Nebraska State Fair from August 25 to September 4 to educate fair-goers on the new voter ID law.
Election officials handed out brochures that answer common questions on voter ID.
The Secretary of State's office, along with county elections officials, will hold more in-person educational events as the voter ID educational campaign ramps up in 2024. As more educational voter ID material is created, documents will be translated into other languages.
The Nebraska Secretary of State's office will continue to update this page to include more information on the new voter ID law.
