Do I still have time to vote early?

The Polk County Elections Office, 120 Second Ave. in Des Moines, is open for early voting Monday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. In Dallas County, the auditor's office is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at 210 N. 10th St. in Adel.

I voted early. How can I be sure my vote was counted?

Absentee and early voters can track their ballots on the Secretary of State's website. If you have not yet mailed your mail-in ballot, you should drop it off at your auditor's office by 8 p.m. Tuesday. In a recent change, ballots must be received by Election Day and must not be postmarked.
