“Mr. Lahn cast an Iowa ballot in the 2024 general election. But voting records that have not previously been reported show he requested that his ballot be mailed to him — in Kansas.” Huh! Now why would he do that 🤔 #IAGov nytimes.com/2026/10/25/us/po…

Besides the fact that Iowa is famous for RAGBRAI, why tf is he doing a Trump impression?
Joe Mitchell: "Thank God you're building the ballroom. Thank God you're getting rid of those awful bike lanes. We don't ride bicycles in Iowa."

Somehow Bobby Kauffman is even worse
BREAKING: Leaked texts show that Zach Lahn was so concerned about his LG pick Derek Wulf's legal problems that his campaign was apparently considering replacing him on the ticket with Bobby Kaufmann 3 days after the pick ON THE SAME DAY, Lahn's campaign downplayed it publicly as "Derek is in the middle of a routine re-financing" iowastartingline.com/news/po…

Ashley Hinson says the war in Iran is "out of sight, out of mind" for Iowans. It's only "out of sight, out of mind" to a multimillionaire like Ashley Hinson, who's voted to continue the war seven times while Iowans are getting squeezed by skyrocketing gas prices.
