Acceptable forms of identification include a New Jersey driver’s license, a New Jersey REAL ID identification card, an identification card issued by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, a United States passport, a United States military or veteran identification card, or a voter registration card. If a voter does not present an identifying document or if the information does not match, their right to vote may be challenged.
