Registration
Register to vote the usual ways (e.g., online, by mail) by Oct. 24. (If you register by mail, your form can also arrive after Oct. 24 as long as it’s postmarked by Oct. 19.) You can register online here. You can also simultaneously register and vote in person at a polling place up through Election Day (Nov. 3).
Voting early
No true early voting, but you can vote absentee in person at your county auditor’s office or, sometimes, a satellite location. Check with local election officials for locations and the exact schedule in your area.
In-person voting
So far, no plans to close polling places have been announced.
Requesting an absentee ballot
Any voter can request an absentee ballot without an excuse. The state is mailing absentee-ballot applications to all active voters (and some counties are mailing them to inactive voters as well); you can also download an absentee-ballot application here. Election officials must receive your application by Oct. 24.
Submitting an absentee ballot
Absentee ballots must be postmarked by Nov. 2 and received by noon on Nov. 9 — or you can drop off your ballot in person by Nov. 3.
What we’re watching
The Trump campaign has sued to stop officials in Democratic-leaning Johnson and Linn counties from sending voters absentee ballot request forms that contain pre-filled information, including name, address, birthdate and voter ID number. Local officials argue that pre-filled forms make it less cumbersome for voters to request a ballot.
