Many people across the United States admire the work ethic of Midwesterners. Growing up as a member of a large farm family in rural Iowa required hands-on hard work. Everyone needed to pitch in to keep food on the table, clothes on backs and a safe roof overhead. People took pride in their homes and properties. Vegetable and flower gardens were weed-free and pristine. Farmhouses and surrounding barns were well maintained and sturdy. If there was a job to be done — it was completed in a timely fashion. 

Clayton County Auditor Jennifer Garms joins Secretary of State Paul Pate in encouraging Iowans to register to vote or update their registration in conjunction with National Voter Registration Month, which runs through Sept. 30. Additionally, Tuesday, Sept. 22, is National Voter Registration Day.

“If you have recently moved, had a name change, or have never been registered in Iowa before, please consider doing so in preparation for participating in the Nov. 3 General Election,” Auditor Garms said.
