Democrats are seemingly close to winning back a House seat from Iowa where former President Donald Trump won the presidential race in both 2016 and 2020. A new poll by the Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa shows Democrat Lanon Baccam ahead by seven percentage points in his race against incumbent Republican Zach Nunn.
The Republican closely won the House race in 2020, beating Democrat Cindy Axne by less than a percentage point, 50.3% to 46.6%. The race was also close in 2016, when Axne beat Republican David Young by 48.9% to 47.5%.
