Following a successful electoral process, Black Hawk County officials are reaffirming their commitment to transparency and accuracy in elections by announcing the results of the statutory post-election audit. This audit displays the county's dedication to upholding the integrity of the democratic process.What is a provisional ballot?
If a voter’s eligibility is in question on Election Day they are allowed to cast a provisional ballot. After the voter marks their ballot and returns it to the poll worker, the voter is required to provide the necessary identification or documentation at the polling place before it closes or provide it at the Auditor’s Office by noon on the following Monday. If the canvass will be held earlier than the following Monday, the identification must be provided before the canvass.
If it is determined that you do have the right to vote in the precinct in which you voted, your ballot will then be counted and included in the final vote total.
