KS only has trump up single digits.  Wasn't someone here talking about living in a non-competitive state and their vote didn't matter?

It's still a non-competitive state and your vote still doesn't matter. Vote Biden, anyway.

Saw that and was impressed by it, but my next thought was something like that works well in Utah where the electorate is more homogenized. There are people, and I'm one of them, who feels politics are more of a zero sum game because of the importance of policy. For instance, potential differences on the voting rights act may not be as important in Utah or even for me in Iowa, as it is in Ohio or Georgia. I don't want to hold hands and sing kumbaya with someone who wants to limit the representation of minority communities.

Might not be as relevant for governor but a utah dem should slam the crap out of pubs for the kids in cages thing, the Mormons are very immigrant-friendly

Hasn't been brought up since it happened. Greenfield only runs positive ads and I guess the super pacs couldn't get an ad of that turned around fast enough.

This race has always been close, swinging from R lean to D lean back to R lean is really stupid, it's a tossup, period.

Wasn't Iowa considered a swing state as recently 2012?

Has been and will continue to be purple. Obama won Iowa twice, we currently have 3 of 4 dem reps, good chance that goes 4 for 4 tomorrow, tons of dem senators and governors.
