FAQ

Q.

Can someone else return my absentee ballot for me?

A.

The only people who may return a ballot for a voter are:

  • someone living in the voter’s household
  • an immediate family member
  • a special precinct election official delivering a ballot for health care residents
  • a delivery agent, in the case of a voter unable to return a ballot due to blindness or other disability
Q.

Do absentee ballots even get counted?

A.

Yes. There is a myth that absentee ballots only get counted if the election is close, however, this is not true. Under Iowa law, every ballot must be counted.
