Iowa Democrats face uphill fight in rural areas after 2018 losses
Democrats acknowledge waning support among rural and working class voters as they seek to rebound statewide in Iowa. Rob Sand won the auditor race, while governor and U.S. Senate races remained unfavorable for Democrats, who point to urban concentration and a growing rural red trend as key challenges. GOP leaders project continued strength in rural counties and plan to expand outreach in suburban areas to maintain momentum.
