(WXYZ) — The Michigan Presidential Primary is happening on Tuesday and we're giving voters everything they need ahead of the election.

When it comes to going to the polls, you do not need to have an ID on you, though it will make things much easier.

While Michigan does have a voter identification requirement, you can still vote if you don't have your ID on you.

If you do not have an acceptable form of ID or did not bring it with you, you can sign a brief affidavit stating you're not in possession of a photo ID.

Forms of acceptable ID include: Michigan driver's license or state ID card, driver's license or ID card from another state, federal or state government-issued photo ID, passport, military photo with ID, student ID with photo from high school or accredited college, tribal identification card with photo.
