Nov 2012

Kristie Vilsack is down by only 2. Obama is ahead by 6 in Iowa, so things are looking good.

King was redistricted and now he now has Ames, Iowa to deal with. Ames is one of the most liberal Iowa cities with 25,000+ college students who are very motivated to bite for Dems. The rest of the city is liberal too. So King will be challenged and could lose for sure!

Iowans are motivated to vote in 2012. Early voting has surpassed 2008 levels.
