The Iowa Secretary of State is a constitutional officer of the U.S. state of Iowa and is elected every four years.

Elections and Voter Registration deals with supervising the 99 county auditors, elections, and voter registration. The division of the office helps the county auditors in telling them which election practices work best. The division also helps in increasing voter registration. The Business Services Division is a records center for businesses in Iowa. The Administrative Services Division and the Communications and Publications Division is involved in scheduling and providing media information, preservation of documents, recordkeeping, and publishing the "Iowa Official Register" and the "Iowa Official Directory of Federal, State and County Officers".
