Short answer: Based on current local election activity in Iowa, today (November 5, 2025) there are no statewide elections in Iowa; many municipalities and school districts held their regular City/School elections on November 4, 2025. If you’re asking specifically about events in a particular Iowa locality named “Iowa 20” or a district with a number like “Iowa 20,” please clarify the city or county, since Iowa’s election calendar is organized by city, county, and school district, and some areas may have local races or issues on different dates. What to do to confirm your exact ballot today
- Check your local county auditor or city clerk website for today’s ballot, polling location, and sample ballot. Most counties publish live results and polling details on election day, and they often provide an interactive ballot lookup.
- If you’re in Ames, Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, or another Iowa city, you can use the Iowa Secretary of State’s voter portal or your county’s election page to view your sample ballot and polling place.
- If you recently moved or aren’t sure about your registration status, you can verify online and, if eligible, register or update information at the polling site on election day.
If you share your specific city or county (for example, “Des Moines, Polk County” or “Iowa City, Johnson County”), I can give you precise details on what’s on the ballot today and how to locate your sample ballot and polling place.
