DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Democratic National Committee and Obama for America are starting a bus tour reminding voters in early voting states they can begin casting ballots.

The tour kicks off in Sioux City at noon Saturday then heads to Council Bluffs for a 3 p.m. event. Several other stops are planned throughout Iowa next week.

After Iowa, the tour will visit other keys states in the lead up to the election. The DNC says it will announce those states in the coming days.

DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz along with governors, senators, members of the U.S. House, mayors, and national celebrities will join the tour to mobilize, register and turn out voters.

Early voting began in Iowa on Thursday.
