Tower City, North Dakota Public Records

Eligible residents can vote by simply providing identification and proof of residency at their polling place on Election Day. Acceptable ID includes a North Dakota driver's license, non-driver ID card, or tribal ID. When an ID doesn't show the current address, voters must provide supplemental documentation such as a utility bill or bank statement. This same-day voting system eliminates registration deadlines but demands proper documentation at the polls. Municipal elections for the city are held in June of odd-numbered years, 2025, 2027, and so on, for city council seats and the mayor position. The next Tower City municipal election is scheduled for June 2025, when voters will elect city council members. Information about candidates, filing deadlines, and local ballot measures is available through Tower City City Hall at (701) 749-2259 and the Cass County Auditor's election division. Candidate filing typically occurs several months before the June election date. Residents vote at a designated polling place in town; the specific location can be confirmed by contacting the Cass County Auditor's office at (701) 241-5660 or checking the Cass County election website closer to Election Day. North Dakota doesn't maintain a polling place lookup tool like other states due to the lack of voter registration, but precinct assignments are based on residential address. Election records that are public in North Dakota include election results by precinct, campaign finance reports filed with the Secretary of State for state-level candidates and the county for local candidates, candidate filing information, and precinct boundaries. Because the state doesn't maintain voter registration lists, there is no publicly accessible voter registration database. Campaign finance records are available through the North Dakota Secretary of State's website at https://vip.sos.nd.gov for statewide and legislative candidates. North Dakota's U.S. The Governor's race is not scheduled for 2026 - that comes in 2028 - but several state constitutional offices including Secretary of State, Attorney General, and others may be contested. All members of the North Dakota House of Representatives (47 districts) and half of the Senate seats are up for election in 2026. Cass County offices that may appear on the ballot include County Commission seats, Sheriff, Auditor-Treasurer, Recorder, State's Attorney, and potentially other county positions depending on term schedules. Tower City municipal offices are not on the November ballot as city elections occur in June of odd years. Information about 2026 candidates will become available through the Cass County Auditor and North Dakota Secretary of State websites as filing periods close in spring 2026. North Dakota offers absentee voting for voters who will be absent from their precinct on Election Day, are unable to vote in person due to illness or disability, or for other qualifying reasons. Absentee ballot applications are available through the Cass County Auditor's office at (701) 241-5660 or online at the Cass County website. Applications must be submitted by 5:00 PM the day before the election. Early voting is available at the Cass County Auditor's office beginning 15 days before Election Day during regular business hours. Mail-in absentee ballots must be requested in advance and returned by Election Day to be counted. North Dakota law allows for military and overseas voters to request and return ballots electronically under certain circumstances.
