West Des Moines man concerned he hasn't received his absentee ballot in the mail

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa — A West Des Moines man said he and his wife are still waiting to receive the absentee ballots they requested by mail.

Tom Deardorff and his wife of 45 years sent in their absentee request forms in September. He said they got confirmation that their ballots had been sent out by the Polk County auditor's office on Oct. 16.

We've never received them," Deardorff said. "It's getting kind of late."

He said they made the decision to vote by absentee ballot because his wife is housebound, so it is hard for her to get out and vote. He said they voted by mail in 2020 and had no issues.
