It’s Election Day as polls will be open in Iowa until 8pm.
Voters can find their precinct polling locations using the Iowa Secretary of State’s website at sos.iowa.gov.
In order to participate in Iowa elections, people must register to vote. A qualified voter in Iowa must be an Iowa resident, be a U-S citizen, and be 18-years-old by Election Day.
A person who is eligible to vote but is not yet a registered voter has the option to register on Election Day at the precinct voting location. In order to register, a qualified voter must provide proof of identity using an ID like an Iowa driver’s license, non-operator’s ID or U-S passport, as well as proof of residence using documents like a residential lease, paycheck or utility bill listing their current address.
Absentee ballots must be returned to a voter’s local county auditor’s office by 8pm today to be valid. These ballots cannot be delivered to precinct polling locations on Election Day.
