There are now seven ways to register to vote in Iowa, including online.
*
Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate says “Electronic registration” went live on January 1st and, so far, about 200 people have used this new online method. It’s located on the Iowa D-O-T’s website and the Iowa Secretary of State’s website has a link to it as well.

Pate says some of the people who’re planning to participate in the February 1st Iowa Caucuses may choose this quick, online tool to either register to vote for the first time — or to update other information.

For years, Iowans have been able to register to vote when they renew their driver’s license and the D-O-T has been cross-checking government lists to ensure the person is a legal voter.
Iowa law also allows people to register on Election Day or at their precinct on Caucus Night.
