If you can, please help Dem. Scholten beat out creep Congressman Steve King of Iowa.

Send donations, spare time to help if you can, lets help Scholten replace this bigoted piece of shit Steve King once and for all.

SIOUX CITY -- A poll released Monday shows U.S. Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, with a 10-point lead over Democratic challenger J.D. Scholten in Iowa's 4th Congressional District.

King, an eight-term incumbent, led Scholten, a first-time candidate, 41 percent to 31 percent in the online poll, which Emerson College conducted Sept. 6-8. Sixteen percent were undecided.

Data was collected using an interactive voice response system and an online panel. The poll has a margin of error of 3 percent.

Scholten insisted the poll is the latest sign his campaign is in "striking distance" of knocking off King in the heavily Republican district. In 2016, King defeated Democrat Kim Weaver by 22 points so being within 10 percent in a poll shows a "surge in momentum," Scholten said. https://siouxcityjournal.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/poll-shows-steve-king-with-lead-in-iowa-trace/article_583b28f2-9177-572d-9dbc-81cdd6ee8851.html
