Turner Rules 18-Year-Olds Can Vote But Not Run for All Offices
Iowa Attorney General Richard Turner says 18 to 21 year olds may vote and run for most offices, but not governor, lieutenant governor, state senator, or state representative due to age rules. He notes 17-year-olds may register and run if they turn 18 by election day. Municipal candidates must be 18 to appear on the ballot. Jury eligibility may follow an amendment allowing 18-20 year olds to serve after 1972.
