Steck to Contest Brookhart Seat in Iowa Senate Race
Daniel P. Steck, Democratic candidate for the United States Senate from Iowa, announced a contest alleging thousands of votes were not counted or counted for the wrong candidate in the November 4 election. Steck claims these uncounted ballots could overturn Senator Smith W. Brookhart’s small lead, and notes reports from local boards show miscounted votes in several counties. He says the contest will be handled by the Senate’s election committee, asserting the will of Iowa voters supports his election. Brookhart declined to comment beyond noting that thousands of votes were not credited to him or were miscounted in some counties.
