Unique Election Day In Iowa

It's Election Day, and some changes have brought a year of firsts for the state of Iowa. It’s the first year voters will need ID’s, and the first time both city and school board elections are being held on the same day. The moves are aimed to increase voter turnout, and officials in the across the state are hopeful it will have a positive impact on voter turnout. I encourage you to go out and vote today, make your voice heard, and help make an impact on your local community. If you are not registered to vote, your deadline has passed to be able to vote in this election. I still strongly encourage you to registered for future elections, especially next November. Voting in presidential elections is important, but local elections can bring the greatest impact to your local community. To get info on how to register to vote, got to sos.iowa.gov
