2006 Iowa gubernatorial election
The 2006 Iowa gubernatorial election took place on November 7, 2006. The incumbent governor, Tom Vilsack, a Democrat, had served two terms and decided not to seek a third. In the election, Chet Culver defeated Jim Nussle to win the governorship, by a margin of 54% to 44%. This election marks the first time Democrats won three consecutive gubernatorial elections in the state since 1966, and the only time Democrats have ever done so for four-year terms. Until Rob Sand’s win in 2026, this was the last time a Democrat was elected Governor of Iowa.
