Do I need to show ID to vote?
Beginning January 1, 2019, Iowa voters will be required to show a driver’s license, non-driver’s ID, passport, military ID, veterans ID, Tibal ID or Voter ID Card at the polls before they vote. Voters, starting in 2019, without an ID may cast a provisional ballot or have another registered voter attest to their identity.
Can someone else return my absentee ballot for me?
Yes. You may permit anyone to return your absentee ballot for you. You may also request a receipt from the person returning your ballot.
