Redistricting[edit]
This section needs to be updated. The reason given is: Redistricting of around 2012 is missing..(November 2018) |
On June 22, 2001, the Iowa General Assembly passed a redistricting plan. The plan went into effect in 2002 for the 108th United States Congress. The prior redistricting plan was effective from 1992 to 2001.[3]
