Here are some of the tweets that followed a post from Laura Belin at Bleeding Heartland that noted while there was no national red wave, there was one in Iowa.
Cry me a river Democrats. Your love for killing unborn babies runs afoul of most Iowans and their values. Add this to your incessant whining about those of us who refused to bow to Fauci and surrender our freedoms during cv2, the rabid pushing of drag queens, LGBT, trans, sex ‘ed’ agenda, the climate ‘change’ nonsense, gun control etc etc added to bashing anyone who doesn’t fall in line with your ideologies…We’ll, frankly we’re sick of it. We The People have spoken…and loudly might add.
Dubuque GOP made history by putting 3 Republicans are into the Dubuque County Courthouse. In Iowas oldest city this has never happened.
We will have R County Attorney, 2 R on the 3 member Board of Supervisors and a Republican Treasurer.
We also returned an excellent R woman to the Senate and other to the House.
Our only loss was another excellent woman for House who lost by just 90 votes. She is requesting a recount.
Dubuque is no longer deep blue and the Democrats can’t believ3 what happened.
Great job!!! Keep me updated on recount.
