Iowa's June 7th Primary - Vote Today! - Action Alert
Tuesday, June 7th from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm

A Message to Our Members

​Have you voted by early by mail or in person? If not, go to your polling place today!


We are all aware of the numerous challenges facing our democracy. Your vote matters more than it ever has and is the path forward for change.

Here are a few sources of information if you need more information today: 

Find your precinct: https://www.scottcountyiowa.gov/auditor/precinct-finder
Find your polling place: https://www.scottcountyiowa.gov/auditor/polling-places
Election day questions? Find answers: https://www.scottcountyiowa.gov/auditor/election-day/election-day-faq

Photo ID is required to vote.

If you still have your absentee ballot but haven't turned it in, DO NOT MAIL IT! Bring it to the Auditor's Office (600 W 4th ST, Davenport - map) before it closes at 8:00 pm today. You can fill it out and drop it there, or turn it in to vote in-person.

For our Illinois members, check the important dates in the post below for information about your June 28th primary.

Petition to Repeal the 2021 Iowa Election Law Changes - Action Alert

In November, the League of Women Voters Johnson County (LWVJC) initiated a campaign to collect signatures to repeal the changes in the 2021 Iowa Election Law. At this time, they're short 5,000 signatures and are extending this campaign to Tuesday, February 1st. If you have already participated, thank you. If you haven't, and would like to be part of it, please provide your electronic signature at www.lwvia.org/anti-voter-laws. For more information about this campaign, visit www.lwvia.org/petitions.

New Voting Restrictions In Iowa - A Message to Our Members

10/19/2021

0 Comments

 

Are You Still Registered to Vote in the Election in Iowa?

 A Message to Our Members

The Iowa legislature recently passed sweeping new voting laws that actually make it harder to vote in our state. If you did not vote in the 2020 election, your voting status becomes inactive. But because we now have to show an ID to vote, once you go to the polls and to vote again, your status moves to active. However, if you do not vote in two general elections, then your voter status is canceled. If you wish to vote in any subsequent election you must re-register to vote.

PACG supported the efforts of Iowa Women United to create an informational flyer about these changes. The second page (shown below) summarizes some of these restrictive measures. Please download and print off the flyer to hand out to your family and friends. 

The right to vote is critical to our democracy. We will continue to fight any laws that restrict that right.
