DMV website updated to better clarify IDPP process
PDFs of IDPP palm card and take-away flyer have been added to site
Wisconsindmv.gov has been updated to better clarify the Identification Petition Card Process (IDPP) used to get a free ID for voting.
The website now includes a PDF of an information sheet (palm card) that clearly outlines what voters should do if they need an ID for voting. Anyone wanting to share that information is encouraged to print and distribute it as needed. A PDF of the take-away flyer which will be given to people using the IDPP has also been added to the website. It explains how the IDPP receipt will serve as an ID for voting and when it will arrive.
