Maine LD1880 mandates photographic identification for in-person and absentee voting.

Maine LD1880 requires voters to present photographic identification for in-person and absentee voting. Acceptable forms include Maine driver's licenses, nondriver identification cards, U.S. passports, and military IDs. The Secretary of State must provide free nondriver identification cards for those without valid Maine driver's licenses. Voters without photographic IDs can cast a challenged ballot and later present ID to the registrar. The bill also allows for religious objections to being photographed.
