Notes

Iowa Code §53.10: in-person absentee voting at the auditor’s office starts twenty days before the election and runs through the day before. Satellite voting sites, where a county has them, can have shorter hours. ↩
Iowa Code §48A.9 (registration closes fifteen days before the election) and §53.2 (absentee requests are due the same day). You can still register at your polling place on election day, with ID and proof of where you live. ↩
Iowa Code §49.73. An absentee ballot returned by mail or in person must reach the county auditor before the polls close. ↩

Voting dates are worked out from Iowa’s election calendar and the Iowa Code. A special election, or a change in the law, can move them; the county auditor has the final word.
