Big battle ahead in Iowa as parties pick nominees
Iowa Democrats and Republicans gear up for a fall battle here. Republicans nominate Dr. William Murray for governor while Democrats back Herschel Loveless. Murray backs a 3 percent sales tax and a holding tax, Loveless defends the current 2 percent sales tax and opposes a holding tax. Public education funding and higher education construction merit debate, with party platforms forming for November. Murray won a strong majority against Lt. Gov. Nicholas, including rural margins. New lieutenant governor race features William Mooty for Republicans and E. J. McManus for Democrats.
