Great news! And running for Secretary of State, one of most important offices in state government because it helps people participate in democracy.
Congratulations to @DeidreDeJear on being the first black nominee for statewide office in Iowa! Black women have voted at a higher rate than other groups, yet are continually underrepresented in elected office. In 2018, we have a chance to buck that trend. http://wqad.com/2018/06/06/sec-of-state-nominee-deidre-dejear-becomes-first-black-person-to-win-major-nomination-in-iowa/ …

Was born and raised in Iowa, and am proud that Iowa is making a change. We Must Get The Vote Out, help others to vote. Now, about the Grassley guy?

Him and King both need to be kicked to the curb. They are both an embarrassment.

Just listen and you can hear how what she believes isn't what's best for Iowa.

Absolutely we do, and we must change that by voting for our Black Sisters, in Iowa and Georgia.
