The Rowan County Board of Elections will hold seminars about voter photo identification requirements on June 24.

A seminar will be held 9:30 a.m. at West End Plaza Event Center, 1935 Jake Alexander Blvd. W. At 5 p.m., a seminar will be held in the Salisbury Civic Center, 315 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave.

The seminars are free and open to the public.

Beginning in 2020, voters will be required to provide photo identification before they cast ballots. This includes both in-person and by-mail voting, with some exceptions. In November 2018, North Carolina voters approved an amendment to the N.C. Constitution to require voters to present photo ID at the polls.

State law requires each county board of elections to hold at least two voter ID seminars before Sept. 1. Participants will receive information about voting options, including absentee-by-mail, one-stop early voting and election-day voting.

Information about provisional voting, the availability of free voter ID cards and residency requirements for voting also will be provided.

For more information on the voter ID requirement, go to www.ncsbe.gov/Voter-ID.

Questions should be directed to the Rowan County Board of Elections at 704-216-8140.
