IA-HD07: Special Election Tomorrow For Open Seat In Iowa House

Statewide Iowa (RI) – Two candidates from Odebolt are running in Tuesday’s special election for an open seat in the Iowa House.

Republican Representative Mike Sexton of Rockwell City resigned from the seat in September after President Trump appointed him state director for USDA Rural Development.

Wendy Larson, the Republican candidate, ran against Sexton in a GOP Primary last year and lost by just 53 votes. Trump won the district with nearly 75% of the vote and the latest data shows for every Democrat in the district, there are more than three registered Republican voters. Larson is a stay-at-home mom with a background in sales.

Rachel Burns, the Democratic candidate, says some Iowans are really struggling and she’s been able to connect with voters.
