The Dallas County Board of Supervisors on Jan. 2 adopted Resolution 2026-007 certifying and declaring the final results of the Dec. 30, 2025 special election for State Senate District 16.
The board’s action followed statutory canvass procedures and noted corrections to clerical errors in the minutes of the canvass. The resolution records that provisional ballots were both counted and rejected as part of the canvass process, as reported by the commissioner of elections under Iowa Code section 50.22(3). The board attested the official abstract of the election and the action was recorded by the county auditor.
The resolution text does not specify the exact number of provisional ballots accepted or rejected in the posted segment; the auditor’s attestation appears in the official minutes. The board’s vote to adopt the canvass resolution was entered into the record and attested by the county auditor.
