You must provide each signing place with a document that captures information relating to the voter identification requirements.
The signing sheet refusal list is used throughout the signing period to capture and record the number of signing papers refused on the grounds:
The photographic ID was not a good likeness
The petition clerk believed the photographic ID was a forgery
The elector failed to answer the prescribed questions satisfactorily
The signing sheet refusal list needs to be updated if an elector later returns with an acceptable form of photographic ID.
The Petition Officer should also use the Voter Identification Evaluation Form (VIDEF) in the signing stations to support the collection of accurate data relating to voter ID.
You may ask petition clerks to collect data using the Voter ID evaluation form (VIDEF). Although it is not a statutory requirement to collect this information, you may decide to collect this information locally in order to understand the operation of the voter ID requirements in your area. Where you decide to collect VIDEF information, you will not be required to collate the data and submit it to the Secretary of State or to the Commission and there will be no restrictions on the publication of the VIDEF data. For more information see our ARO guidance.
