| Description | Starting Line’s analysis of Iowa’ four congressional races continues today with the most intriguing primary of all: the Des Moines-based 3rd District. Four, possibly five Democrats have a real shot at winning the party’s nomination to take on incumbent Republican Congressman David Young. It’s also more likely than not that the nomination goes to a convention if no candidate gets to 35%, the amount required by Iowa law to avoid doing so. Young himself prevailed in a nominating convention in 2014 after coming in 5th place in the primary. Could the Democrat who finally defeats him come out of a similar process?
Nearly every candidate filed their 3rd quarter finance reports on Monday, each showing candidates taking very different approaches to building their campaign accounts. There’s no other Iowa race where the contenders all are taking such unique paths to potential victories. |
