FAQ

Q.

Can a homeless person register to vote?

A.

Yes. Any eligible voter in Iowa may register to vote. Because many of those who are homeless have a nontraditional address they just need to provide an address or description of where they sleep the most, wherever that may be.

Q.

I can't get out of my car; can someone bring me a ballot to vote from there?

A.

Yes. If you are unable to go inside the polling place a team of election workers will be sent out to your car to help you vote.
