Non-Mystery Candidates to Hills Saturday

Well, the mystery candidate for the US Senate appears to be... Roxanne Conlin. The Reg has the scoop first while James Lynch at The Gazette talks to the non-mystery candidates.

Those non-mystery contenders, Tom Fiegen and Bob Krause, will be in Hills Saturday for the Johnson County Dems BBQ. The big name is Dave Loebsack, but we also get Sec of State Mike Mauro, state party chair Mike Kiernan, and special election winner state Rep. Curt Hanson. Doors open at 2 with speeches slated at 3:15.

(No liveblog; the laptop's in the shop. But tune in after for the usual Deeth details.)
