      elections under the provisions of chapter 44, 45, or 376.  An
      election on the question of conducting city elections in such a
      special charter city on a nonpartisan basis may be called by the city

      presented in conformity with section 362.4, but a special election on
      that question shall be held concurrently with any election being held
      on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of any
      odd-numbered year.
         Sections 43.114 to 43.118 shall apply only to cities to which this
