Friday’s 5 p.m. deadline has passed and we now know which candidates for statehouse, statewide and congressional offices submitted the paperwork required to have their names placed on June Primary ballots.

There’s a minimum number of petition signatures from Iowans that must be collected for each office a candidate is seeking. Third district congressional candidate Theresa Greenfield fired her campaign manager when he admitted he forged some of the signatures on her petitions, which were filed earlier this week. Greenfield and a crew of supporters made an almost literal 11th hour dash Friday. They collected signatures from residents in each of the 16 counties in the third congressional district and submit them just before the filing deadline.

In addition to Greenfield, Republican gubernatorial candidate Ron Corbett and first district congressional candidate Courtney Rowe, a Democrat, submitted their petitions Friday afternoon. Corbett’s came in just an hour before the deadline. The secretary of state’s staff will review the petitions from those three candidates on Monday. They’ll determine if those candidate met the paperwork requirements.

The NEXT deadline in this process is next Friday, the 23rd. Rival campaigns and private citizens have until then to review the petitions from all the candidates and challenge any signatures that appear suspect.

A list of all the candidates who submitted petitions to run in the Republican, Democratic and Libertarian Party Primaries on June 5th can be found here (on the Iowa Secretary of State’s wesbite: https://sos.iowa.gov/elections/pdf/candidates/primarycandidatelist.pdf
