Have you checked your ballot status?

Once you receive your mail-in ballot, please complete it as soon as possible and either mail it back to your Early Voting Clerk or hand deliver it to their office on Election Day. To ensure that your ballot is received and counted, you should check your status early and often until its status is “Accepted."

ID Number Requirement for Mail Ballots

Under Texas law, individuals who vote by mail must include with both their application and mail ballot one of the following:

  • Texas Driver’s License number

  • Texas State ID number

  • Last four digits of their social security number, or

  • Election ID Certificate number

There will be a designated location on your application and your mail ballot’s carrier envelope where you will include those ID numbers. 

Note: We recommend voters include BOTH an ID number (either Texas Driver’s License, State ID number, or election ID certificate if you have neither) AND the last four digits of their social security number to ensure that their application and ballot is accepted.

If you receive a vote by mail application or ballot rejection notice due to incorrect or missing ID numbers, you can add the numbers or correct the numbers using the Secretary of State’s ballot and application tracker portal. If you are having difficulty using the tracker portal, please call 844-TX-VOTES (844-898-6837) for assistance.
