Iowa Admin. Code r. 821-10.1

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 8, October 30, 2024

Rule 821-10.1 - NCOA county commissioner determines nonactivity; sends notices

(1) During the first quarter of the calendar year following a general election, the state registrar shall examine voter registration records to identify those voters without activity during the period following the previous general election and for whom no information has been reported in NCOA data. For the purpose of this subrule, "activity" means voter-initiated activity such as any registration application, including an application which duplicates existing information; a notice of change of name, address, mailing address, or party affiliation; a vote in any election; or the mailing of a notice pursuant to subrule 10.1(2). A registered voter shall not be sent a notice and return card under this subrule if the registered voter was not 18 years of age on the date of the most recent general election.

(2) The state registrar shall coordinate the printing and mailing of the required no-activity notifications. The state registrar shall notify the commissioners when the notifications have been mailed. Any postage-paid preaddressed return cards returned by voters will be sent back to the counties, not to the state registrar. The state registrar shall send one notification to each voter identified based on the criteria in subrule 10.1(1). The notice shall be mailed to the voter's mailing address.
