Pate passes on congressional bid in Iowa’s 1st District
Former Cedar Rapids mayor Paul Pate will not seek the Republican nomination for Iowa 1st District, citing family priorities and the difficulty of a long Washington tenure. He remains open to local public service but favors school board or other local roles over a Washington campaign. Democratic and Republican contenders fill the open-seat race landscape.
