How to vote in June 7 primary

Let’s get out the vote for our endorsed candidates! To vote in this spring’s primary elections you must be an Iowan who is registered to vote. And, in the State of Iowa, primaries are closed which means a voter will need to declare a party (Democrat or Republican) in order to participate in the primary.

Primary winners will move on to the November 8, 2022 General Election.

There are three ways to vote:

  1. Vote by mail!
    Request your vote by mail ballot here. Last day to request a ballot is May 23. Absentee ballots MUST be received at your auditor’s office or ballot drop box by the close of polls on election day.

  2. Early voting in person
    Begins May 18 – June 6. You can vote in person at your County Auditor’s office Monday through Friday 8 am – 5 pm. Find your county auditor’s office here.

  3. On Election Day: Tuesday, June 7
    Find your polling place here. Polling places will be open on election day from 7 a.m. – 8 p.m.

Find out if you’re registered in Iowa!

If you have moved to Iowa from another state or to a different county in Iowa, pre-register to vote in your new county before the first election in which you wish to vote. If you registered after or missed the pre-registration deadline, Election Day registration is available. Bring two pieces of info: proof of identification and proof of residence – read more to make sure you’re ready to go and able to vote.

If you are 17 years old you may participate in a primary election if you will be 18 on or before the day of the corresponding regular election. For all other elections you must be 18 years old on or before election day.
