(Atlantic) Cass County Auditor Dale Sunderman says voters wishing to complete an absentee ballot request form for the November 2 City and School elections may now file request forms with the Cass County Auditor’s Office.
Sunderman says due to recent legislation, the 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 Cass County Auditor’s Office, 5 W 7th St., Atlantic, IA, before 5 p.m. October 18. In-person early voting in the Auditor’s Office will start October 13.
Absentee ballot request forms are on the Cass County website – Auditor’s page or call the Cass County Auditor’s Office at 712-243-4570.
