    Will the poll workers volunteer that info or do you just have to know? I found out just a week ago that Texas will let you vote without an ID but you have to provide proof of residency, sign an attestation that says you can’t reasonable acquire an ID, and you can fill out a provisional ballot.

      …and then they’ll throw it out.

        If the burden of proof is on the voter, most likely, then yeah, it pretty much won’t get counted. If you could’ve proved it in the first place you probably would’ve just had an ID.
