§1What your vote means

Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.

A yes vote

A yes vote would add to the Nevada Constitution a rule that in-person voters show an approved photo ID before getting a ballot, and that mail voters write the last four digits of their Nevada driver’s license or Social Security number, or a county-issued number, next to their signature.1 pp. 16-17, 24-25

A no vote

A no vote would leave the Nevada Constitution unchanged, and voters would keep showing identification only in the limited cases state law now sets, such as some first-time voters who registered by mail or online.1 p. 17

More about it

Under the amendment, a photo ID counts if it is current or expired for no more than four years, and for voters 70 or older it may be expired for any length of time if otherwise valid.1 p. 24 The official digest says that if voters approve it again, the Legislature could pass related laws in its 2027 session and the changes would apply starting with the 2028 elections.1 p. 17, Digest

It is on Nevada's list of statewide measures for November 3, 2026.1,2,3,4 None of the official sources we read calls the list certified or final, so we don’t either. What we couldn't confirm about the list is in the notes on Nevada's measures.

§3What it needs to pass

Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.

More than one condition. An amendment proposed by initiative must win a majority of the votes cast on it at two general elections in a row; voters approved this one in 2024, so it becomes part of the constitution only if a majority votes yes again in 2026.1,5 Nev. Const. art. 19, § 2(4); booklet p. 2
