Election officials give voters last-minute reminders before election
It decision time in the Tri-States with elections in Southeast Iowa and Missouri Tuesday.
This is the first time Lee County, Iowa residents are voting in a combined city and school election since lawmakers made the change last year.
The Lee County Auditors Office said they’ve seen higher than usual early and absentee voting with just over a thousand ballots already in.
Election officials say if you’re not registered to vote yet, you can register at your polling place.
“You’ll need proof of identity, so a drivers license,” Lee County Election Deputy Nikki Sugars said. “If it doesn’t have your current address on your drivers license you’ll need proof of your current address which could be a utility bill in your name.”
Even if you’re already registered, Sugars said you’ll still need a drivers license, non-operator ID or voter PIN card to cast your ballot.
The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m..
