The polling
No public head-to-head polling yet for this race; statewide-office and
down-ballot congressional contests are rarely polled this far out.
Where a poll appears, it will show here and on the
polling average.
Candidates: Iowa Secretary of State 2026 general-election list. State cash on hand is each
committee's latest state disclosure filing; federal cash is the FEC-reported figure
for the candidate's registration for this office. A candidate who holds a
registration only for a different office shows no figure rather than that other
committee's balance. State and federal money are never combined in a single figure.
Funding mix is current-cycle itemized contributions.
