The choice for voters is clear:
@joemitchelliowa Builds workforce housing in Eastern Iowa and employs people in Eastern Iowa.
@Lindsay4Iowa Is a “pastor” of a “church” that’s helps children as young as 5 become trans. (This is what she does instead of showing up to vote for her other job as a Des Moines politician)
One of these people was born and raised in Eastern Iowa the other was born and raised in Portland. Take a guess who is who.
At least Rob Sand took it on the chin in Iowa City from his radical leftist supporters in defense of innocent children. Lindsay is in lockstep with them. Joe born in Iowa, Lindsay born in Portland. It makes a difference.
So much courage! When asked if she supported gender affirming care for minors (something she already voted for), @Lindsay4Iowa dodged the question 3 times. Pastor In Name Only.
That’s the point, Lindsay hides behind smiles and ice cream just like Joe Biden did while destroying this country. Higher taxes on social security and family farms. Sex surgeries on children. Open borders.
She is the worst of the worst.
If what is being alleged is true, federal prosecutors can put Lindsay James in prison.
That is how serious this is.
🚨 I just spoke with @Dave_Bushaw, an independent candidate in #IA02 -- he told me that Democrat @Lindsay4Iowa offered him a job in her D.C. office if she wins -- if he drops out
Story incoming
.@Lindsay4Iowa (D-Portland) and @joemitchelliowa (R-Clear Lake) both show up and meet the people they want to go to DC and fight for.
.@IowaStateFair @IowaSOS Straw Poll Results:
Joe Mitchell (R) 69.72%
Lindsay James (D) 23.92%
Rick Stewart (L) 3.56%
Dave Bushaw (NP) 2.8%
But we have work to do!
.@Lindsay4lowa voted against TWO tax cuts that represent $2,470 annually back in the pockets of a household making $65,000 a year in IA-2.
You cannot afford @Lindsay4lowa in Congress!
You’re not much of a pastor. See below⬇️
In March 2023, James voted against a bill prohibiting gender transition procedures for minors. (SF 538, Iowa Legislature, Passed House 58-39; James Voted Nay 3/8/23)
On the house floor debating SF 538 she stated “it is mind boggling that the defense of this legislation is under the disguise of protecting children. When has protecting children meant denying them what can be lifesaving care.” (Lindsay James, Iowa House Floor, 3:42:03pm to 3:42:24pm, 3/8/23)
Currently Lindsay James trails all Democrats in the Iowa State Fair straw poll. (apps.sos.iowa.gov/elections/…)
💅Voted for HIGHER taxes on overtime pay, social security, and family farms
🧑🏼🩰Voted to make it EASIER for violent repeat offenders to get out of jail on bail
🤪In the legislature, didn't show up, SKIPPING 50% the votes last session
If you want someone laser focused on lowering costs and making housing affordable not forcing men into women’s sports or forcing you to apologize for being white like @Lindsay4Iowa….. you have a home here…. Democrats, Independent, or Republican.
That face you make when telling people you’ll fix affordability by increasing taxes on overtime pay, social security benefits, and family farms.

John Fetterman doesn’t hold back on the DSA: “That wasn’t parody, this wasn’t Portlandia.”
Fetterman: “As a Democrat, I, I just can’t ever defend these people. And then when you look at, at that woman in Wisconsin, I mean, if I’m, if I’m running for the governor with her as a Democrat, I’d be losing my mind. I mean, I’m losing to, to total crazy pants, and I, and now, like, I’ve, I’ve watched her in some of her views, you know, whether it’s in Wisconsin or whether in Michigan now, you know, these are the people that are winning elections across the, this country, and I think I’m probably one of the few Democrats that’s willing to call it out, you know? And I, I watched that, that interview on your network where the co-chair of DSA— They saying, “Well, we gotta abolish the presidency, the Pentagon, the Senate, the presidency, and abolish the police and the border.” And, and now that wasn’t parody, this wasn’t Portlandia.”

I’m a 6th generation Iowan, 1st generation college student. I’m a small business owner. My parents are lifelong Iowans and small business owners too. My 4X grandfather fought for the Union Army during the Civil War and is even buried in Northwood, Iowa, 20 minutes from where I live.
I don’t hold it against Lindsay that she was born and raised in Portland, Oregon but the problem is she moved to Iowa and voted like somebody who was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. What’s even worse, is how she attempts to demean hard-working Iowa families that have achieved the American dream. She wasn’t there for the ups and downs of any business, the hours, the stress, the real work it requires, she’s just there to criticize the result. I have built a business, built the home I live in now, and hired hundreds of people across Iowa, and especially in Northeast Iowa, to build homes people can afford. So I don’t just oppose her voting record. The message she put out today is just not Iowa. And it’s Un-American.
1/I moved to northeast Iowa over a decade ago for a job opportunity at Loras College where I was able to foster connections and build community.
@joemitchelliowa moved here last year for the opportunity to get elected to Congress and climb the D.C. social ladder.
