DES MOINES, IOWA (AP) -- Can't wait to cast your ballot?
Secretary of State Michael Mauro says Thursday marked the beginning of the early voting process for the June 8 primary election.
Absentee ballots are available at county auditor offices throughout the state, and staffers will mail them to those who request a ballot.
Absentee ballots for those in the military were mailed April 24.
A number of contested races will be decided in the primary, including the Republican nomination for governor and the Democratic contest for U.S. Senate.
