Vice President JD Vance arrived in Iowa on Tuesday, marking his inaugural visit to the state since assuming office, a crucial stop for Republicans who will cast the initial votes for their party’s next presidential nominee in less than two years.
Vance, widely considered one of the Republican Party’s most formidable potential candidates for the 2028 presidential election, is in Iowa to campaign for Republican Representative Zach Nunn. Nunn faces a highly competitive race to retain his Des Moines-area seat in the upcoming November midterm elections.
