SIOUX CITY -- Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who drew big crowds of Democrats during the 2016 presidential race, will campaign with Iowa 4th District Democratic nominee J.D. Scholten later this month.
At a Friday fundraiser in Sioux City and in a press release, Scholten, a Democrat from Sioux City, said Sanders would make stops on Oct. 20 in Sioux City and Oct. 21 in Fort Dodge and Ames. Scholten, who is challenging Republican Rep. Steve King, announced Sanders' appearances during a dinner sponsored by the Woodbury County Democratic Party Friday night.
In Sioux City, Sanders will join Scholten at a rally at Morningside College. Along with the visits to Fort Dodge and Ames the next day, Sanders will appear in three of the four largest cities in the heavily Republican 4th district, which covers 39 counties in Northwest and Northcentral Iowa.
