Congresswoman Ashley Hinson, the Iowa Republican Party’s candidate for the U-S Senate, used her speech at the Des Moines Register’s Political Soapbox yesterday (Monday) to question her Democratic opponent’s voting record in the Iowa House — and his fundraising.
J-R’s Southpork Ranch at the Iowa State Fair offers a one-hundred dollar lobster roll with caviar and edible gold. Hinson says Turek, who is a state representative, missed 58 percent of the votes in the Iowa House this year.
Turek says he missed those votes because he was meeting with Iowans all over the state in the weeks leading up to the June Primary, where he faced a Democratic opponent. Hinson began her short State Fair speech with her critiques of Turek, then spent a few minutes touting her work in the U-S House.
Hinson listed the Stillbirth Prevention Act as well as a law designed to help veterans access mental health care services.
Hinson faces Turek and Libertarian Thomas Laehn (like “LANE”) in the General Election on November 3rd.
