Who knows? Special elections can be unpredictable-with the right candidate the seat could flip (see Conor Lamb).

I'll donate to him, again - here's hoping he can unseat that monster this time


+1. It amazes me that Steve King can spit out racist, misogynistic venom regularly and get so little press coverage for it.


Awwwww, sad trombone sound for Steve King, everyone:

“In past cycles, corporate PACs have donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to Steve King's reelection efforts. Not only have they abandoned him this cycle, but at least six of his past corporate donors are giving to his GOP primary opponent.”

His likely D opponent has the ad in the OP of this thread.

“Republican challengers in the House are running to serve a single term -- likely in the minority -- before reapportionment/ redistricting. For some, waiting until 2022 might sound like a better option.”
