Disappointed for Bauprez. GOPe ditched him it seems. How did the rats sweep the Iowa state senate when they got crushed for senate, governor, and lost a House seat?
I don’t know, they took 1 open GOP seat (not Joanie’s) that sounds like it was rat leaning and 1 of their incumbents lost to a Republican in what sounds like a GOP leaning seat, so it stays 26-24 rat.
GOP hasn’t won the IA Senate since 2002. Lame.
How did Bruce Rauner win every country in IL but Cook and yet GOP gained not 1 state leg seat here? Lame.

That would be something, all I heard during the primary was that he WAS GOPE.
It usually comes down to “all politics is local” and “it’s always the candidate”; all those Iowa split-tickets reinforce that idea.
