Iowa Could Be First With Map

Iowa Could Be First With Map

The Legislature could vote on the redistricting map as soon as this Thursday. Swing State Project links to this Register piece and notes: "All signs point to passage, which would make Iowa the first state in the nation to complete its redistricting process."

The Register piece looks at several specific districts, including the Battle of the Dutchmen in the Pella-Osky pair:
Vander Linden and Van Engelenhoven are cousins. "That would literally be a family feud, so I don't know," Vander Linden said, referring to a primary battle. Some Republicans hope one would instead challenge Rielly for the Senate seat.
Many other specifics so check the whole thing out.
