Bernie Sanders swings through Iowa in final midterm sprint
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/bernie-sanders-swings-iowa-final-midterm-sprint/story?id=58585678
As part of an aggressive campaign swing in the final weeks of the 2018 midterms, Sen. Bernie Sanders will return to the state of Iowa this weekend, looking to boost a Democratic congressional hopeful that is trying to flip the state's most conservative district to blue.
Sanders will campaign on Saturday and Sunday with J.D. Scholten, the Democratic candidate in Iowa's 4th Congressional District against GOP Rep. Steve King, a conservative provocateur and fervent supporter of President Trump known for his hard-line rhetoric and positions on immigration.
The district is the most Republican in the state according to statistics from the Iowa Secretary of State, and despite his penchant for generating controversy, King has only failed to win 60 percent or more of the vote in his district during his nearly 16-year congressional career.
