The Iowa Democratic Party (IDP) is the affiliate of the Democratic Party in the U.S. state of Iowa.
The party organizes the Democratic Iowa presidential caucuses. In recent years, the party has lost ground in the state, holding no congressional seats from Iowa, superminorities in both houses of the state legislature, and only one out of seven statewide elected officials.
