TRUMP HEADS TO IOWA AS REPUBLICANS FACE UNEXPECTEDLY TOUGH ELECTION BATTLES IN FORMER STRONGHOLD
President Donald Trump is travelling to Iowa as Republicans face unusually competitive races in a state he won by 13 percentage points in 2024. Republicans are defending a Senate seat, three House districts and the governor’s office, while voter concern over fuel prices, food costs and personal finances has become a major campaign issue. A recent Iowa poll found 42% of likely voters saying their finances had worsened over the past year, while Trump’s national approval has fallen to 31%. The November 3 election remains undecided, but Iowa’s Senate and House races could contribute directly to determining control of Congress. Reuters
