Voters in a section of Adams County will head to the polls tomorrow (Tues., April 9th), to decide who will fill the Supervisor District 5 seat vacated by Karl McCarty. The candidates include: Republican Bobbi J. Baker-Maynes; Current appointee, Democrat Corey B. Moore; and two persons nominated by petition – Karen A. Carlson, and Tim Peterson. The polls will be open from 7:00-a.m. until 9:00-p.m., Tuesday. Voting is limited to those voters who reside in District 5-Prescott.

Election Day Registration: A person who is eligible to register to vote may do so on Election Day at the polling place for the precinct in which the person lives. The person must complete a voter registration form, sign an oath, and provide acceptable proof of both identity and residence. The most common example of an acceptable form of identity and residence is an Iowa driver’s license that is not expired and shows the person’s address on Election Day. Other acceptable forms of identity may be found at www.sos.iowa.gov.

Voting at the Polls: All voters are required to provide an approved form of identification at the polling place before they may receive and cast a ballot. Voters who are not pre-registered or voters changing precincts must also provide proof of residence. Any voter who cannot show ID may have their identity attested to by another registered voter in the precinct who has proper ID. For more information about voter ID, visit http://sos.iowa.gov/voterid or call 641-322-3340.

Questions may be directed to the Adams County Auditor’s Office; the telephone number is 641-322-3340.
