As of April 1, 2019, 35 states enforce or are scheduled to enforce Voter ID requirements. Of those that require ID 17 states require voters to present photo ID; the remainder accept other forms of ID (driver's licenses, state ID cards, military ID, or paperwork)

Two important to note:

1) Valid forms of identification can be both photo and NON PHOTO ID.
2) What is and what is not REQUIRED.

The 15 states that do not have any requirements are detailed as follows.

California: "In most cases, California voters are not required to show identification at their polling place." A voter MAY BE asked for identification such as utility bills or any document from the government...

Illinois: "Illinois state law does not require voters to present a form of identification at the polls on Election Day. New voters who did not provide proof of identity at the time of registration MAY BE required to present identification at the polls"

Maine: A voter in Maine DOES NOT have to present identification at the polls unless he or she is registering on Election Day. In that case, the voter must present identification and proof of residence.

Maryland: Only first-time voters who registered by mail and did not provide a valid form of identification are required to present identification at the polls on Election Day in Maryland. Most voters in Maryland do not have to present identification on Election Day.

New Mexico: Voter must show identification at the polls ONLY if they mailed their registration and did not provide verification at that time. Valid forms of identification include photo and non-photo forms (paperwork)
