Elkader – Clayton County Auditor and Commissioner of Elections Jennifer Garms announced that Clayton County voters will soon have a user-friendly website to find all of their election information. The website elections.claytoncountyia.gov officially goes live on Friday, February 19, 2021.

Access to election results, learning to register to vote, viewing sample ballots, and finding a form to request an absentee ballot is now simplified.

The website includes more past election information than our current website and a section listing contact information for all officials voted on by Clayton County voters. The new website features a streamlined designed that provides optimized viewing for those using a mobile device or tablet.
