I also said both candidates should release more information about their wealth and financial status. But no, my criticism is definitely going to more anti-right rn. After all they have been in charge for over a decade here and have absolutely run this state into the ground. So …
I have criticized Sand for canceling the OBS debate today. He was able to campaign the day after the debate was scheduled. Also criticized Sarah Trone Garriott for fucking around on scheduling a debate. However my criticism is more critical of the GOP because they are worse rn.
4/ Iowans are voting early differently, too.
At the same point in 2022, mail accounted for 48% of ballots received. Now: 25%.
Satellite voting rose from 12% to 35%.
Mail distrust? Convenience? More opportunities? The reports show the shift, but don’t tell us why.
2/ Ballots received versus the same point in 2022:
No-party voters: +72.0%
Republicans: +34.4%
Democrats: +22.9%
Democrats now account for the largest numerical increase: 25,019 additional ballots, followed by Republicans at 21,483.
Registration isn’t a vote choice.
1/ Iowa’s early-voting pace pulled further ahead of 2022.

Why does so much of @ZachLahn's money come from PACs/outside of Iowa?
It's disgusting how much money is in our political system today, regardless of party. But he's the one trying to pretend he's just a small-town farm boy.
Individual donations have barely budged for him, too.
New Cook Political Report poll: Rob Sand 54%, Zach Lahn 43%.
