This bill amends the scheduling of elections for school district and city officers in Iowa, changing the regular election date from the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of each odd-numbered year to the same date in even-numbered years. Additionally, it stipulates that school district and city officers whose terms would expire in January of an even-numbered year will serve until the following January and be eligible for reelection in the preceding November. This change will take effect for regular elections held after November 2, 2027.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new date for special elections related to issuing bonds or other indebtedness, allowing them to be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in June, in addition to the previously established date in November. The amendments aim to streamline the election process and align the timing of various elections within the state.
