(Statement from Clinton County Auditor’s Office) – Clinton County voters interested in voting absentee for the November 2 City/School Election may file requests for absentee ballots with the Clinton County Auditor’s Office.
Due to recent legislation, the time period to request absentee ballots has gone from 120 days to 70 days. The new legislation also has shortened the number of days that the Auditor’s Office may have ballots available for absentee voting. Voters now have 20 days to vote absentee either by mail or in-person rather than 29 days.
Voters wishing to receive a ballot by mail for the City/School Election will need to complete an absentee ballot request form and return it to the Clinton County Auditor’s Office, 1900 N. 3rd St., Clinton, IA, before 5 p.m. October 18. In-person early voting in the Auditor’s Office is anticipated to start October 13.
Absentee ballot request forms can be found on the Clinton County Elections website at www.elections.clintoncounty-ia.gov. They may also be requested by calling the Clinton County Auditor’s Office at 563-244-0568.
