Encouraging residents to run for city office is one of the most important ways to strengthen local government. To help you share this message, we’ve prepared templates you can customize and use with your community:
- A press release you can personalize with your city’s filing dates and a quote from your mayor or council.
- A short community notice for newsletters, websites, or social media.
Iowa’s 2025 city elections will take place on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, and filing deadlines are quickly approaching. Thank you for helping spread the word and inspiring residents to consider serving their communities.
