(Atlantic) The Cass County Auditor’s Office has some answers to your questions regarding absentee ballot request forms.
Q: I have already filled out an Absentee Ballot Request Form, do I need to fill another one out, I keep getting them in the mail.
A: NO, only one Absentee Ballot Request form is necessary and only one will be accepted (you don’t get additional ballots for filling out another form). If you are afraid we didn’t receive your request please go to the Secretary of State’s website and track your request form.
Q: How many of these forms will you be sending me?
A: Our office does not send those forms out, it is likely that you will receive several.
Q: Are all of these forms good? Could they be fraudulent?
A: Yes, the forms you are receiving from the different candidates and parties are all acceptable.
Q: May I fold the form and put it in an envelope or tape it?
A: Yes you may fold it and you may tape but please use the tape sparingly. Sometimes they are taped together too much and they get torn trying to open them. ONE piece of tape is fine.
Q: I don’t have my PIN number, how can I get it?
A: If you have a Driver’s License or State of Iowa issued ID card that is the number you need. The PIN number is for those that do not have a drivers license. If you need your PIN number you will need to call our office and answer some questions and then we can give you that number.
Q: Can we drop election materials in the box outside the courthouse?
A: You should mail or hand deliver your election materials to the Auditor’s office.
Q: When will we receive our ballots?
A: All ballots will be mailed out October 5, 2020

Q: Do I have to declare a party for this election?
A: No
Q: Do I need a voter registration card to vote?
A: Your Driver’s License or State of Iowa ID card is what you will use to vote. If you do not have one of these you will need your PIN card which is issued from our office.
