Ernst expects tough Senate race amid big signature haul
Iowa Senator Joni Ernst said a hard re election fight is likely but noted her record and Trump on the ballot should help down ticket races. She gathered nearly 24000 petition signatures to qualify for the June GOP primary, calling the effort a sign of strong grassroots support and her organization’s reach. Ernst, 49, seeks six more years in the U S Senate, facing five Democrats in the primary and a competitive general election.
