Yet Another Special Election Result Shows Democrats Poised to Flip IA-02

On Tuesday, Democrats overperformed by a whopping 13 points in the TN-07 special election, with midterm level turnout.

With that level of overperformance on Trump’s +10 margin in IA-02, Democrats would flip this seat and win by three points. 

It’s no surprise that voters have had enough of Washington Republicans’ agenda of slashing health care, raising prices, backing reckless tariffs further hurting the farm economy, and putting billionaires and special interests first at working families’ expense.

REMINDER: Iowa Democrats have already overperformed this cycle, most recently in a special election in a Trump +11 state senate district – an overperformance of 22 points for Democrats. 

DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith:
“It’s a bad day to be an Iowa Republican. Democrats are on offense and we’ll compete aggressively to flip this seat – and we will win, because Iowans are tired of Republicans’ agenda of higher costs, health care cuts, and tax breaks for billionaires.”
