Meet the Deputy: Chris, First Deputy!

Today we are highlighting Chris, First Deputy in the Johnson County Auditor’s Office. Image
Chris oversees #JohnsonCounty’s payroll and accounting functions, including processing biweekly payroll for the 1,000+ County employees, paying bills, and maintaining records of spending and receipts for the County’s $125 million budget!
His favorite part of working for the Auditor’s Office is the range of duties the office holds, from accounting to elections, real estate, and minutes, which always keep the job interesting.
He also enjoys interacting with other County departments and working with a team that conducts a successful General Election every 2 years (please don’t remind us how close we are to the 2020 Presidential Election).
When Chris isn’t at the office, he enjoys birding, kayaking, hiking, and conservation and citizen science projects. He is also a @HawkeyeFootball and @IowaWBB fan and enjoys visits from his granddaughter and dog walks around #IowaCity. Thanks for everything you do, Chris!

Who's excited for in-person absentee voting to start tomorrow?!?

We're excited to expand upon the drive-through voting model we developed for the Primary Election! Want to learn how it's going work?

Then keep reading!
We have moved our drive-through voting to the bottom floor of the Health & Human Services parking ramp (855 S. Dubuque St.) to accommodate the increase in voters we are expecting.
Here's how it works:

1. You will enter from the Clinton St. side of the ramp. You will then be directed to stop at one our sheds, where you will be processed and given an absentee ballot and affidavit envelope.

‼️ Educational Thread Alert ‼️

Have you wondered how we make sure our voting equipment is functioning properly before an election? We test them! A lot. Here's how that process works 👇
The process starts by getting some test ballots ready! We must mark ballots in a way that produces unique, pre-determined results for each candidate in each race. For the General Election, this means that we needed to mark 55 ballots for each style, over 4,500 ballots total! Image
Next, we test the machines! Each precinct gets the 55-ballot systematic set for our vote tabulator (DS200 from @essvote), as well as an additional set of ballots that makes sure the ballots can be read in all directions and processes overvoted and blank ballots correctly. ImageImageImage

Absentee FAQ #2: When do I need to get my Absentee Ballot Request Form to you? Image
Absentee FAQ #3: I sent in my Request
Form but haven't gotten a ballot yet. Why? Image
