Branstad Aims to Carry Avenson's Fayette County
Gov. Terry Branstad predicts winning Fayette County in the November general election, challenging Democratic rival Don Avenson who has carried the county in past races. The two will appear at next week’s Fourth of July parades in Oelwein Independence What Cheer and Humboldt. Avenson, a long-time Democrat and former speaker, notes Fayette’s Republican leanings but has historically won his district.
