- What’s an Attester?
- An attester can vouch for the identity of someone without an ID. If a person with a disability doesn’t have an ID or has mobility challenges that prevent them from getting an ID, they may use an attester. The attester must provide his or her name, North Dakota driver’s license, nondriver’s, or tribal identification number, and sign the absentee/mail ballot application form to attest to the person’s residency and voting eligibility.
