Republicans caught a lucky break in IA-01 and IA-03, because yesterday the Iowa Supreme Court upheld the lower court ruling that knocked Libertarian candidates off the ballot there (and in IA-04 which is not competitive).

Cindy Axne won IA-03 in 2018 and 2020 with less than 50% of the vote, thanks to third-party candidates that collectively received between 3-4 percent. In 2022, with no third-party candidate on the ballot, she again received more than 49% of the vote but lost to Zach Nunn.
Nunn now faces Lanon Baccam in IA-03 with no third parties registered. Mariannette Miller-Meeks faces Christina Bohannan in IA-01, also with no third parties on the ballot. Both are considered lean R races.
