Few contested races in city/school election

The filing period ended Thursday, Sept. 21 for the upcoming combined city/school election that is Tuesday, Nov. 7.

Voter pre-registration deadline is 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 23. Pre-registered voters are required to provide an approved form of identification at the polling place before receiving and casting a regular ballot. Voters who aren’t pre-registered — such as voters registering to vote on election day — and voters changing precincts must also provide proof of residency. A voter unable to provide an approved form of identification or prove residency may have the voter’s identity/residence attested to by another registered voter in the precinct, prove identity and residency using election day registration documents or cast a provisional ballot and provide proof of identity/residency at the county auditor’s office by noon Nov. 13. Election Day attesters must provide an approved form of identification. For additional information about providing proof of identity and/or residency, visit sos.iowa.gov/voterid or phone 641-743-2546.
