The 2022 general election will be held next Tuesday, November 8.
Polls will open at 7:00 a.m. and close at 8:00 p.m. at seven precincts across the county (see chart at right).
If voters have questions about their precinct location, they may refer to their voter cards, the county website: www.ringgoldcounty.iowa.gov/elections or contact the Auditor’s Office at 641-464-3239. Voters may view the sample ballot by accessing the county’s website.
All voters are required to provide an approved form of identification at the polling place before receiving and casting a ballot.
Acceptable forms of identification include:
• Current Iowa Driver’s License or Non-Operator’s ID
• Current U.S. Passport
• Current U.S. Military ID
• U.S. Veteran’s ID
• Tribal ID/Document
Voters who are not pre-registered – such as voters registering to vote on election day – and voters who have moved and changed voting precincts will also be required to provide proof of residence.
A voter who cannot provide proof of identification may have their identity attested to by another voter registered in the precinct who has an approved form of identification.
For more information about voter ID, visit http://sos.iowa.gov/voterid or call 641-464-3239.
A person who is eligible to register to vote, may register on election day by appearing in person at the polling place for the precinct in which the individual resides.
The voter must complete a voter registration application, make written oath and provide acceptable proof of identity and acceptable proof of residence. Acceptable documents which can be used as proof of identity and proof of residence are very specific and substitutes will not be accepted. To see all forms of approved ID visit http://sos.iowa.gov/voterid or call 641-464-3239.
Any voter who requires assistance to vote by reason of blindness, disability, or inability to read or write may be given assistance by a person of the voter’s choice, other than the voter’s employer or agent of that employer or officer or agent of the voter’s union.
In accordance with Chapter 49.90 of the Iowa Code, any voter who is physically unable to enter a polling place has the right to vote in the voter’s vehicle.
Full results from Tuesday’s election will be available at mtayrnews.com shortly following the closing of the polls.
