Steven King is on his way to defeat!!!! Don't like rooting for republicans, but Randy Feenstra...

[George II]

...is kicking King's ass.

Only 19% of the vote in so far, but Feenstra is leading 47% to 34%!!

He's freaking toast I hope!

1. What's this about?

Why are you rooting for a republican?

2. A saner republican is better than one who needs to be committed to an asylum

It is a massively red district. Getting rid of King is victory in my book.

3. Primary election.

Republican voters in Iowa's 4th Congressional District will decide Tuesday whether to stick with their nine-term incumbent representative or nominate another Republican to compete in the general election for the first time in 18 years.

U.S. Rep. Steve King, who was first elected in 2002, faces his most competitive primary election since he first won his seat in Congress. State Sen. Randy Feenstra has been spending heavily on television advertising targeting King as ineffective since he was stripped of his committee seats by Republican leaders in January 2019.

5. Thanks Grokenstein. We posted about the same time. I went and googled what the poster was

trying to say.

8. This congressional district is as red as it gets.

Better to have a normal right winger in congress than a Nazi. King has no redeeming qualities and brings shame to the entire state.

4. Nevermind. I googled it. It's Iowa. Steven King is a racist republican that is being primaried.

[George II]

6. Update - 33% of the vote in, Feenstra 49%, King 34%! WOOHOO!!!!

7. That's actually bad news for us.

I was reading an article today that basically said any old generic republican is almost certain to win that deep red district... but the Democratic candidate actually has a chance against Steve King who is absolutely reviled at the moment. It would be like a Doug Jones vs Roy Moore situation in Alabama...

9. I doubt it.

I don’t see a Democrat ever winning that seat. I call that district Vichy Iowa. They’ll stick with Trumpism until the bitter end.

[PTWB]

11. Many thought the same thing about Alabama / Doug Jones and he kicked ass

[Delarage]

10. That would be great

I wonder if it's still possible? Feenstra is a Trumper, but he doesn't appear to be *as* insane as King. Anyone who supports Trump is, in my book, EXTREMELY questionable. But this guy may just be an opportunist which is more in line with regular Repukes and can be dealt with.
