The Office of the Iowa Secretary of State has released a document to help outline the many ways that Election Security in Iowa is used in protecting the integrity and sanctity of the vote.Do absentee ballots even get counted?
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.
What if I'm still waiting in line when the polls close?
So long as you are in line to vote at the time the polls close you will be allowed to vote.
