SF 68 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to nomination deadlines for nonparty political organizations.

SF 68 resets nomination filing deadlines for nonparty political organizations in Iowa elections to pre-2019 timing. It requires nominations for state offices (including president/VP) filed with the state commissioner to be submitted by the 73rd day before the November general election, and nominations for county or city offices filed with county officials by the 69th day before the election. These changes revert to earlier deadlines that were modified after 2019, affecting how political groups file candidate nominations and objections for state and local races. The bill makes technical adjustments to align all related filing timelines with these revised deadlines.
