OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — About 80,000 ballots are going out to registered voters in Millard.
It's to decide issuing bonds to make improvements at Millard Public Schools.
Here's what's really new for voters in this election — providing ID information without showing it to anyone.
Before you return your mail-in ballot, pick one of three options to provide your voter ID information:
- Write down your Nebraska driver's license number or state ID card number.
- Provide a photocopy of your ID.
- Or check the box that you have a reason for no photo ID, and be sure to put that certification into the envelope.
"We are encouraging voters to use the Nebraska driver’s license or state ID," said Douglas County Election Commissioner Brian Kruse.
Kruse said it's the easiest way for them to verify your ID. In addition to the special election in Millard, he also announced that 130,000 early voting mail-ballot applications are going out for the City of Omaha primary and general elections.
All voted ballots for the Millard special election must be dropped off Feb. 11 by 5 p.m.
