By Secretary of State Paul Pate and Former U.S. Election Assistance Commission Chairman Matt MastersonVoting is one of the most important duties a citizen can undertake. Protecting the integrity of the vote across Iowa is of the utmost importance, and the state’s holistic approach to election security is a critical component to that. Iowa is ranked in the Top 3 nationally for Election Administration, in huge part thanks to the state’s layered approach to protective and cyber security.
