Pursuant to a law passed in 2007, North Carolinians can register in person and vote on the same day at a one-stop voting site. This year One Stop voting begins October 16 and ends November 1.

Session Law 2007-253 says in order to vote at a one-stop voting site, a voter must do two things. 
1. Anyone wishing to vote must complete a voter registration form with the following information:
        Name,
        Date of birth,
        Residence address,
        County of residence,
        Date of application,
        Gender,
        Race,
        Ethnicity,
        Political party affiliation, if any, in accordance with subsection (c) of this section,
        Telephone number (to assist the county board of elections in contacting the voter if needed in processing the                 application),
        Drivers license number or, if the applicant does not have a drivers license number, the last four digits of the                 applicant’s social security number.  

However, the applicant does not really have to have a drivers license or social security number, the State Board can assign a unique identifier number to an applicant without either for voter registration purposes.
