 About this list

The above list includes only those persons who have filed affidavits of candidacy with the Secretary of State and who will appear on the June 4 primary ballot. Other persons may consider themselves candidates and may in the future file affidavits of candidacy for the November 5 general election ballot, but only the three official political parties will participate in the June 4 primary.

The filing period for the November 5 general election for state and congressional candidates not representing the three official parties is July 29-August 16 for congressional, statewide and legislative candidates.  Ballot Access and Candidate Qualifications  The political parties may also nominate federal, statewide or legislative candidates by convention to fill ballot vacancies through August 16 (August 28 for county offices).

The website Politics1.com lists statewide and congressional candidates not representing the three official parties who may file for the general election.

Due to redistricting, all legislative district numbers in Johnson County have changed.  Candidates are listed as incumbents if they are currently serving in the same office to which they seek election.  More than one incumbent may run in a given district.

Upon filing nomination papers, all candidates complete an affidavit of candidacy form.  This includes a space for the candidate's phone number with the notation "Optional, will be published."  If no phone number is listed for a candidate on this web site, the candidate left the phone number space blank on the affidavit of candidacy.

County candidates representing the Democratic, Green and Republican parties were able to file with the Auditor's Office from March 4 - 27.   Other county candidates may file for the November 5 general election between August 5 - 28.  Before August 5, the Johnson County Auditor's Office will accept a notice of intent to declare candidacy from candidates for county and township office only who do not represent the three official parties.

The Iowa City Public Library maintains information on persons who have declared their candidacy for public office but have not yet filed affidavits of candidacy, or who have announced their intention to withdraw. Contact the information desk at 356-5200.
