new birth of freedom - and that
government of the People, by the People
for the People, shall not parish from the earth.
The Primary Election is an election to determine which candidates will qualify for the General Election for a given party. In Iowa you must be a member of the political party of which you wish to vote for in order to participate. This is known as a "closed primary." The primary election is held on the 1st Tuesday following the 1st Monday in June of each even-numbered year.
Important Notes
Iowa has a closed Primary which means voters will vote on either a Democratic ballot or a Republican ballot. If the voter votes a ballot and is not currently registered with that party, their voter registration will be updated to that party’s affiliation. If the voter wishes to change their registration back, they may do so once the election is closed and certified.
Polling locations are changing for this election. Please scroll to the list of locations to find your precinct information.
