Summary

Provisional voting; voter photograph taken at polling place. Provides that a voter who does not have one of the forms of identification required by law shall be permitted to vote provisionally, in which case he shall have his photograph taken by an officer of election. That photograph shall be transmitted to the electoral board, and no further action by the voter is required. If the electoral board determines that the voter was a qualified voter in the precinct in which he cast the provisional vote and confirms that a photograph of him taken by an officer of election has been received, the voter's provisional vote is required to be counted.
