PSA Regarding Voter Registration
I am a deputy auditor for my county. As you may know, the Auditor’s Office is in charge of voter registrations & elections. Prior to 2020 the law required the Secretary of State’s office to inactivate voters if they had not voted for four years. After 2020, the Iowa legislature changed many election laws. One of them being an inactivation of a voter after two years of not voting in an election. They send a notice that you have to fill out & mail back to the auditor that you want to remain active. Please make sure your voter registration is active. Also, the window to request & receive an absentee ballot has been drastically shortened. Call your county Auditor’s office for information on absentee voting or any questions you may have regarding the election process.
