Re: IA - Sen: The Future Starts Today
After a decisive victory last night earning 78 percent in a three-way primary, Roxanne Conlin has earned the right to challenge 30 year incumbent Senator Chuck Grassley.
Washington is broken and Iowans are fed up with politics as usual. This race is a stark contrast between a career politician who has sided with the special interests time and time again and a champion who has fought for everyday Iowans and will hold Washington accountable.

KCCI (Research 2000) poll was released tonight showing movement in the right direction for our campaign! We're nine months from Election Day and Roxanne is already giving Chuck Grassley the closest race he's had in 30 years.
