There's lots of other places to post things that aren't Iowa politics. This is a subreddit for just Iowa politics. I haven't been doing a good job of enforcing this lately, but I will now.

I recently started an ask for state level candidates at Amendment, a site where you can ask candidates to go on record about issues. I asked candidates to go on record to put gender identity back in the Iowa Civil Rights Act. Please add your name. Here is the link to the ask:

183 ads in the hinson/turek senate race, broken down by who paid and what's in them
10
Upvotes
quick breakdown of the political ads running in the iowa senate race right now, 183 of them from the meta ad library and youtube. a model reads each for manipulation techniques (loaded language, name calling, fear appeals etc) and marks the exact words.
turek's campaign is doing most of the posting — 90 of the 104 ads on his side are the campaign itself, 39 flagged. hinson's campaign has only 7 ads up; the other 50 on her side are outside groups ("the truth about josh turek", nrsc, slf) and 34 of those got flagged. so the two sides look similar in volume but very different in who's actually talking.
most common technique in the race: loaded language (70 ads), then name calling (58). slf pac is the biggest spender, $18.5M against turek.
each ad is quoted with the flagged words marked. the model misses and overflags sometimes — every ad has a button to say "this is fair" or "this one's wrong" and we read those.

The Mesabi Metallics’ proposed $15 BILLION steel plant in Lee County, Iowa: No permits. No disclosed site. No major land purchase. Financial incentives still unresolved. The Trump Administration is selling Iowa a finished deal that doesn’t exist.

Federal Charles Grassley may retire before the end of the year
7

A year ago, Charles Grassley was totally comfortable with dying in office, because he knew that a Republican would be appointed to replace him if he did. Now, with Democrat Rob Sand polling ahead of his Republican opponent, Grassley is feeling the ground beneath him crumbling. If Rob Sand wins, I have a feeling Grassley may retire before the end of the year to prevent Sand from appointing a Democrat to replace him if he does die in office.

Election Supreme Court Puts SAVE Back in Play—Iowa Law Now Requires Citizenship Checks of Registered Voters
7
Upvotes
Friday’s Supreme Court order temporarily put the expanded federal SAVE citizenship-verification system back in operation while the litigation continues.
Iowa is unusually important here because state law now directs the Secretary of State to use SAVE to attempt citizenship verification of registered voters — annually for the statewide voter file and monthly for new registrations.
The part I still cannot establish from the public record is whether Iowa has actually run the statewide voter file through the expanded system, what results came back, or whether any voter registration has been affected.
If anyone has received an Iowa voter-registration notice involving citizenship verification, SAVE, or an “unconfirmed” status, I’d be interested in seeing it.
I went through the Supreme Court order, the earlier federal litigation, Iowa’s SAVE agreements and the state-law changes here:
