We also have to show picture ID when we vote. The first election that this was true for was our fake primary. If you don't have picture ID with you, you can sign an affidavit that you are, indeed, you. Prior to that, we just filled out a sheet with our name, address and birth date and signed it and they crossed your name out in the big book of names for that voting precinct. I imagine if someone showed up later in the day saying they were the same person, there could be a challenge then.
ETA: Our department chair always tells us to make sure we vote, even if it means we'll be late in the morning or have to leave early. I don't know anybody who works close enough to their polling place to vote at lunch time. Most of us commute 15+ miles to work every day.
