Fletcher wins nomination in Iowa amid county city splits
Attorney General John Fletcher easily defeats Walter A. Newport of Davenport for the nomination. Fletcher leads in rural precincts and gains a small city margin before widening his advantage in the countryside as results come in. Several state office staffers who sought local posts see their political power fade, while local candidates like Arch McFarlane win in Black Hawk County. Impeachment talk lingers over Lieutenant Governor’s conduct tied to coal deals and university transactions, with no official ruling before the next session.
