Related: About this forumVoted early today
Very shortly after the polls opened. And even at 7:15 am, there was a steady stream of people. I guess a lot of people were voting before they went to work, and a few of them were older folks, like me, who wake up early. Anyway, I had zero problems voted entirely Democratic, and noticed something. Every race had the repuke candidates listed first. DeJear comes before Reynolds alphabetically, so they can't claim alphabetical order. I suppose the repukes may be counting on people being in a hurry and not paying attention. If so, it didn't work with me.

I sure hope that doesn't mean another 6 years of the worthless Chuck.
But really the one I really wanted to see get beat was Reynolds. By far the worst governor of Iowa ever and it is pretty hard to get lower than King Terry.

Whatever, her big goal is to privatize Iowa's once proud public schools. It will be a disaster. But Iowa's vaunted press will hardly even notice.
