AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Iowa’s Election Day: Voters are deciding a close U.S. Senate race between Republican Ashley Hinson and Democrat Josh Turek, an open governor’s contest between Republican Zach Lahn and Democrat Rob Sand, and competitive House races. The results could reshape Iowa’s congressional delegation and test Republicans’ grip on state government. Rising prices and voter dissatisfaction with President Trump have featured prominently in the final campaign push; polls close at 8 p.m. Capitol Court Fight: A federal judge ordered Iowa officials to allow the Satanic Temple to hold a holiday event in the Capitol rotunda, finding the group likely to succeed on its free-speech claim. Attorney General Brenna Bird’s office says the state plans to appeal.
