More #IASen thoughts from the DMs.
Raising the question, “Is Zach Wahls too dumb to realize Josh Turek is a better candidate, or does he realize and is lying?”
After a full day at the legislature, I've finished my recap of Monday's "KHOI's Capitol Week."
The audio file is here, along with a rundown of topics covered. We try to include Iowa politics stories you won't see elsewhere.

This is why savvy political commenters in Iowa have been asking “What the fuck is @zachwahls.bsky.social doing??” #IASen
Ashley Hinson called tariffs a “double-edged sword” that would hurt Iowans, but has spent the last year supporting them.
“I do know that tariffs do hurt the American people ultimately because, you know, it just, it adds an extra cost, and there's always an extra cost.” #IASen
My quarterly reminder: 'Tis the season for candidates to tout their fundraising hauls.
I don't report these stories until the FEC filings are publicly available, so I can see where the money came from. I will never just write up a campaign's press release. #IASen #IA01 #IA02 #IA03
As far as my sleeper Senate race? Probably #IASen. It would not surprise me if Democrats won Iowa but lost Texas.

Iowa hospitals are being forced to shut down their labor and delivery services after Medicaid funding cuts.
Ashley Hinson proudly voted to make it harder for her constituents to access life-saving healthcare. #IASen

The war in Iran is causing fertilizer prices to skyrocket, further stretching Iowa farmers to the brink.
"It's safe to say that [...] my fertilizer company is making more money per acre than I am off of the corn I raise."
When is Ashley Hinson going to stand up for Iowa farmers? #IASen
Part of being strategic means paying close attention to which Democratic primary contender Republicans would prefer to face in a general election.
In Iowa, there are now many signs now that the GOP would prefer to face Zach Wahls over Josh Turek in the #IASen race.

(Turek is not a veteran himself, but he was born with spina bifida after his father was exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam.)

Didn’t like the “Fight” message so made a nicer alternative #IASen. Tried to make one for Zach Wahls but it wouldn’t let me post it. Oh well.
Dave Price, Kathie Obradovich, and I talked about U.S. Senate and governor's races on the latest "Iowa Down Ballot" podcast.

We’re going to do left wing Queer Eye for this guy’s campaign #IASen
The majority in the United States Senate may rest on the #IASen race and the capable(?) hands of this man
Going on liberal cable news to talk about farmers so he can raise money from rich liberals in California and New York, and then lose anyway 😡 This is why @zachwahls.bsky.social needs to drop out. Literally going to throw the Senate majority to Trump. #IASen
There seems to be a new GOP poll of the #IASen race this week. I have a copy of the version that tests messages about Turek, but I don't have the version with messages about Wahls.
If you get this survey, please try to record the call or take screenshots of the online Qs, and share them with me.
