pretty much everybody expects 3M to move from Ottumwa and into the new first district (dammit). Christina Bohanan should be a formidable challenger for her.

Mathis and Hinson in the new 2 - couple of former newscasters with lots of name recognition.

May depend on how well Biden's presidency is going, the stimulus and how we are doing defeating the virus. Feels to me like this will in a way be a shadow presidential race. I think Biden will hold up well against the crazy orange critter.
