FAQ

Q.

Can I get help marking my ballot?

Yes. If you need assistance filling out your ballot ask a poll worker for help. A team of one republican and one democrat will come over and help you mark your ballot. Also available in each polling location is a ballot marking device that will read you all of the choices and then print out your marked ballot.

Q.

Can I pick up or request a ballot for someone else?

No. In Iowa you can only request an absentee ballot for yourself.
