Poweshiek county leans Cummins as campaigns spend and circle
Col Lafe Young notes progressives raised 150 in Poweshiek county for legitimate campaign costs while the standpatters paid 136 to a daily paper publisher to reach voters. Turnover includes offers of 5 to 50 to sway townships against Cummins, prompting active efforts to prevent county theft. Poweshiek and Story counties show weak standpat support, with Cummins favored in traditional Republican counties. Major Lacey has relied on Poweshiek for votes in November.
