• Source: 1992 Iowa Senate election

      • The 1992 Iowa State Senate elections took place as part of the biennial 1992 United States elections. Iowa voters elected state senators in 32 of the state senate's 50 districts—all 25 of the even-numbered seats were up for regularly-scheduled elections and, due to the oddities of redistricting following the 1990 Census, seven of the odd-numbered seats were up as well. State senators serve four-year terms in the Iowa State Senate, with half of the seats traditionally up for election each cycle.
      The Iowa General Assembly provides statewide maps of each district. To compare the effect of the 1991 redistricting process on the location of each district, contrast the previous map with the map used for 1992 elections.
      The primary election on June 2, 1992, determined which candidates appeared on the November 3, 1992 general election ballot. Primary election results can be obtained here. General election results can be obtained here.
      Following the previous election, Democrats had control of the Iowa state Senate with 28 seats to Republicans' 22 seats. On December 17, 1991, a special election in district 44 resulted in Albert Sorensen flipping a seat in favor of the Democrats. Therefore, on election day in November 1992, Democrats controlled 29 seats and Republicans had 21.
      To reclaim control of the chamber from Democrats, the Republicans needed to net 5 Senate seats.
      Democrats maintained control of the Iowa State Senate following the 1992 general election with the balance of power shifting to Democrats holding 27 seats and Republicans having 23 seats (a net gain of 2 seats for the Republicans).


      Summary of results


      NOTE: Most of the 25 odd-numbered districts did not have elections in 1992 so they are not listed here.
      Also note, an asterisk (*) after a Senator's name indicates they were an incumbent re-elected, but to a new district number due to redistricting.

      Detailed Results


      Reminder: All even-numbered Iowa Senate seats were up for election in 1992 as well as 7 odd-numbered districts due to the oddities caused by redistricting.

      Note: If a district does not list a primary, then that district did not have a competitive primary (i.e., there may have only been one candidate file for that district).
