| Following news that Joni Ernst will not seek re-election and that Ashley Hinson is making plans to get into the Iowa Senate race, DCCC spokesperson Katie Smith released the following statement:
“Ashley Hinson is clearly eager to jump off the sinking ship that is her re-election in Iowa’s 2nd district. Hinson is terrified to face her voters, who’ve had a front row seat as she’s prioritized Washington and billionaires while voting to raise Iowans’ costs. There’s change coming in Iowa: voters are ready for new leadership and no matter what Hinson decides, she will lose her seat.”
REMINDER: On Tuesday, Iowa Democrats won a special election in a Trump +11 Iowa state senate district – an overperformance of 22 points for Democrats. This is the FOURTH straight Democratic overperformance in Iowa legislative special elections this year. |
