Photo ID required to register to vote and to vote, voter ID card created, provisional ballots established, ID of individuals acting as an agent for an absentee voter required, ID of individuals providing assistance at a polling place required, criminal penalties increased, and money appropriated.

HF 1369 requires voters in Minnesota to present a photo ID to register and to vote. It creates a new voter identification card (with no fee for vital records needed to obtain it), establishes provisional ballots for voters who lack ID, and mandates ID verification for individuals acting as absentee voter agents or providing polling place assistance. The bill also increases criminal penalties for certain election violations and appropriates funds for implementation. These provisions apply directly to all voters participating in Minnesota elections.
