They're looking for someone that's genuine,
that is not doing this for the position for the money for the fame but is really doing this because we need people in dc not from wealth not from privilege but are really going up there to do like what senator harkin did and fight for the people of iowans and fight for small businesses and fight for small family farms and
and fight for social and economic justice and fight for social safety nets that are being eroded.
These social safety nets like Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security, and they're gonna go up there and fight for people's healthcare and a livable wage.
And my state is really, really struggling like no other state, dead last for economic growth.
You know, I don't want this to be siloed.
I don't want this to be about, I want to get to the U.S.
Senate and to heck with everybody else.
And so I like the attention being on Iowa.
And my message to your viewers would be,
The very best place to invest this year is in Iowa.
Iowa, I understand that people on the coast will say Iowa is a red state, but we are not.
We are a common sense state that has masqueraded more red than what we are.
30 years, we voted for Senator Harkin.
We're a state that has voted twice for Obama, three times for Trump.
We have more Obama-Trump counties than any other state in the union.
But in much more recent history, Trump's last midterm, we won three of the four congressional races.
We almost won all four, three points away.
And in the last midterm that we had,
We were 1.5% away from having three of our six statewide officials being Democrats.
