It's here! The polls opened for midterm Election Day at 8 a.m. Tuesday.
You've done your homework, studied up, and know the names you're going to choose. The chance to vote early or by mail has come and gone, but you can still vote at your local polling place (or drop off your ballot at a designated drop box in certain counties) until 8 p.m. Tuesday — 9 p.m., if you're an Iowa voter.
Have questions? Start here for answers about required ID, whether you're entitled to take time off work, and what to do if you're turned away at your polling place.
Need to check the weather? We have you covered there, too.
Show & tell! Tag us in or send us your #iVoted selfies or lines you encountered at your voting location today — and definitely let us know if you encounter any issues. Find and follow us here:
