Republicans like to think they own it.

You may remember last year the city council (Republican) fired the mayor Democrat) in the city of Muscy over real bogus reasons.
The mayor and 4 Dems then won the election last year overwhelmingly.
Hoping that will happen to their worthless state reps, county supervisors and any other elected this year.

Heartland Rises: Protest Donald Trump's Visit!
Hosted by Nebraska Democratic Party and Iowa Democratic Party:

I just got back into town and here's what I've gleaned. There's going to be a rally at 3pm at the Pottawattamie County Democrats office (217 S. Main St. in Council Bluffs) IDP Chair Troy Price and Tim Gannon (Ag candidate) and other candidates will be there. Then off to vote and protest.


And then there is this one with Next Gen Iowa: https://www.facebook.com/events/1948104721917242/?active_tab=discussion

Hello! Sorry for the last minute change, but we've had to shift our exact location and time:
- We're meeting one hour earlier, now 5PM
- We're meeting on the corner of 23rd & Bass Pro Rd. You should be able to park nearby.

We'll see you there to resist and rally for the midterms! Our speakers will be starting at 5:15!

Is that the best the GOP has? Nasty Nancy Pelosi? Dipshit David Young and black ops PACs can't stop talking about her. Young pretends to support health care and votes to kill it.

on Election Day. At least in this state it will be counted.
If you voted at the auditor's office like we did (and you simply must have) you cast an absentee ballot.
