February 14, 2022

MUSCATINE, Iowa – Muscatine County Auditor Tibe Vander Linden joins Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate and county auditors across the state in encouraging Iowa high schools to conduct voter registration drives on Tuesday, Feb. 22. The date coincides with the birthday of first U.S. President, George Washington, and will also be “Twosday” on the numerical calendar, 2/22/22.

State law allows 17-year-olds to register to vote. There are 3,500+ 17-year-olds currently registered in Iowa.

“It’s crucial for young people to learn that registering to vote and participating in elections is the best way to make sure your voice is heard,” Secretary Pate said. “My office is working with schools across the state to help them register eligible students.”

Registering to #BeAVoter in Iowa has never been easier. There are several options available, and it only takes a few minutes. You can register anytime online, through the mail, at various government agency offices, at a voter registration drive, military recruiting centers, and in-person at your polling place on election day.

Governor Reynolds plans to issue an official proclamation declaring Tuesday, Feb. 22 as “Iowa High School Voter Registration Day.”
