Aside from ousting Donald Trump from the White House, the story of the 2020 election has an unhappy ending for Democrats. They failed to win back the Senate, nearly lost the House and fell short in statehouses all across the country.
But from the botched caucuses in February to the party's wipeout on Election Day, nowhere was more miserable this year for Democrats than in Iowa. Long a focal point of the party's political universe, Democrats there are now on the brink — their losses up and down the ballot in November have made the state’s first-in-the-nation caucus status more precarious than ever.

Well they aren't gonna oust Trump either, so all in all, a very bad year, and very well deserved.

They stopped the caucuses. Their cheating worked fine. If they'd have needed Iowa, they would have had it. This is Politico, where happy Democrat victories either just occurred or are inevitable. They want us to think they lost, even though they stole everything in sight and left Republicans some crumbs to keep the fools coming back.

“There’s a lot of soul searching going on in Iowa right now,” said Sean Bagniewski, chairman of the Polk County Democrats. Stop searching Sean, you liberals have no soul.

I always thought Iowa was fly over country populated with farmers who were rock solid Republicans. So what is this love affair that the people of Iowa have with demosluts that always look down on people from that part of the country doing the kind of work they do. Of all the parts of the country to be for demosluts, Iowa just doesn't come to mind.

Lots of corn grown in Iowa, lots of farmers vote for Democrats because they want to continue to have corn turned into ethanol and forced onto consumers.

This whole debacle that is 2020 should show, with absolutely no doubt, that the Commucrat party should be outlawed and it's members barred from holding office ever again.

SLO Joe won't be around in 2024
Hopefully the lone Dem Congressman will be gone in 2022.
Any Dems in Energy producing areas will have to jump ship on green new deal,or they are gone in 2022

The narrow flips to GOP in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin in 2016 overshadowed the abrupt flip of Iowa. Trump routed Hillary in Iowa by over 9 points in 2016, and he beat Biden there by over 8 points in 2020. Iowa looks like a solid red state now that is beyond the margin of fraud.

Too time consuming I suppose to cheat down the ballot instead of just at the top for O’Biden. To vote down ballot would require time and reading ability......

#6 - I don’t know if you’re familiar with Iowa but you would be surprised. I live in rural Iowa and do a lot of driving to other counties. I never saw a Biden sign at any farm but I saw HUGE Trump signs. Trump flags were everywhere. I saw farmers with Trump flags on their combines and tractors. I’m 60 years old. I’ve never seen that for any presidential candidate in my life.

Iowa was a swing state not so long ago. Now Dems are perplexed why they are being routed, top to bottom. Looking ahead Dems have nothing but socialists, communists, and outright weirdos for future elections, which will be summarily rejected in places like Iowa by even larger margins.

Geo Soros and his band of moneybag criminals went after Joni Ernest hard. They were viscous ads all day on every channel. She beat the Dem witch big time . That used to be Harkin's seat and they thought she was one to snatch up. Surprise thugs and misfits.. Repubs stood behind our Senator.

Such a shame. All the democrats had to do was to accept Donald Trump's well-earned 2016 victory, not allow the corrupted DOJ, CIA, FBI, the failure known as Barack Obama and Nancy's House harass him for four years with false accusations. taken a reasonable approach to the Bat Flu, stopped their young animals from rioting, burning and looting and conduct an honest election in 2020. Wouldn't that have been easier than making complete asses of themselves?

Iowa is full of highly educated people. When I was young we led the nation in test scores. They aren't the dumb rubes that the coastal elites think they are! They are also very good people overall. They are genuinely friendly, care about their neighbor and embrace traditional American values of Faith and Family! They work hard and don't have much time for Government do nothings!
