Josh Turek for Iowa
Josh Turek here with some news – Republican Senator Joni Ernst officially endorsed my opponent, Ashley Hinson, in the race for Iowa’s U.S. Senate seat. Hinson already has the backing of wealthy extremist donors, but Ernst’s endorsement gives dark money groups and National Republicans an even stronger signal to funnel loads of money into Iowa to try to hang onto this must-win seat and their Senate majority. This race just got even more competitive. Will you rush $25 to defeat Hinson and flip Iowa’s Senate seat?
