Reprimandover Badgering Signatures At Iowa Senior Center
Iowa City congressional candidate Bob Simpson and campaign volunteer Irvin Pfab were reprimanded by Heritage Area Agency on Aging for allegedly badgering seniors to sign a petition at the Iowa City Johnson County Senior Center dining room. Pfab says he collected 20 to 30 signatures with no pressure, and a senior center official notes complaints. Simpson resigns his aging task force post to focus on his campaign, while Pfab is tipped to become chair. Heritage oversees meal sites in 42 locations across seven eastern Iowa counties and may reevaluate center rules on candidate activity.
