Recap of another red wave election in Iowa
Six of the last eight general elections have been Republican landslides in Iowa. Laura Belin and Spencer Dirks recap the November 5 results: how Donald Trump improved on his past performance, the outcome in all four Congressional races, and the GOP gains in the Iowa House and Senate. Other topics covered: Iowa's new constitutional amendments, judicial retention votes, and what Senator Chuck Grassley plans to prioritize as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
