Woodbury County Announces Special Election for Salix City CouncilFAQ
Q.
I registered as an independent; why does my card say "NP" or "No Party"?
A.
Iowa does not recognize an “independent” party. Instead, “No Party” is used to indicate a lack of affiliation with a political party.
Q.
What is the last day I can turn in my absentee ballot?
A.
You are allowed to hand deliver your ballot to the Auditor’s office up until the time the polls close on Election Day. If you return your ballot through the mail, your ballot must arrive by 8:00 p.m. on Election Day, with exceptions for individuals in the Safe at Home program and military/overseas citizens.
