Any Iowan may vote early. You do not need to give a reason for doing so.
Absentee ballots may be sent to voters through the U.S. Postal Service. Voters may also vote by absentee ballot in person at the county auditor’s office or at satellite absentee voting locations. Request forms for absentee ballots may be obtained online in a PDF format or mailed upon request from the Secretary of State’s office.
Completed forms should be returned to the county auditor in the county where the voter is registered.
