Two special elections were scheduled for the Iowa State Legislature in 2013. These elections were called to fill vacancies in Iowa House of Representatives Districts 33 and 52.

How vacancies are filled


If there is a vacancy in the Iowa General Assembly, the vacant seat must be filled by a special election. The governor of Iowa is required within five days of a vacancy in the General Assembly to call for a special election. If the vacancy happens in session or within 45 days of the session convening, the governor must call for an election as soon as possible with at least an 18-day notice. All other special elections require a 40-day notice as long the election does not happen on the same day as a school election within the district.[1]
