721—21.302 (48A) In-person absentee registration. After the close of voter registration for an election, a person who appears in person to apply for and vote an absentee ballot may register to vote if the person provides proof of identity and residence in the precinct in which the voter intends to vote. The voter must also complete an oath of person registering on election day. Otherwise, the person may cast only a provisional ballot. Provisional ballot envelopes shall be used.
	 21.302(1) Proof of identity must be a photo ID card that is current and valid and includes an expiration date. An ID is still current on the date it expires. An Iowa nonoperator’s ID card that shows “none” as an expiration date is considered current and valid. The following forms of identification are acceptable: an Iowa driver’s license or nonoperator’s ID, an out-of-state driver’s license or nonoperator’s ID, a United States passport, a United States military identification card, an identification card issued by an employer, or a student identification card issued by an Iowa high school or an Iowa postsecondary educational institution. If the photo ID does not show the person’s address in the appropriate precinct, the person must show proof of residence.
	 21.302(2) Proof of residence may be any of the following documents provided that the document shows the person’s name and address in the precinct: residential lease, property tax statement, utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check, or other government document.
	 21.302(3) A voter who does not have appropriate identification documents may have another registered voter from the same precinct attest to the person’s identity and residence. An attester must be a registered voter and must live in the same precinct as the applicant. A person may not attest to the identity and residence of another voter for an election if the person registered to vote under the provisions of 2007 Iowa Acts, House File 653, section 2, for the same election and the person’s identity and residence were established by the attestation of another registered voter. The attester shall not attest to the identity of more than one person. The commissioner shall keep a list of all persons who have attested for in-person absentee registrants and send the list to the polling place on election day with the list of absentee voters required by Iowa Code section 49.72.
This rule is intended to implement 2007 Iowa Acts, House File 653.
