Brad Anderson
The race for Iowa secretary of state remains wide open. According to
a new Public Policy Polling poll, Republican Paul Pate has a narrow lead over Democrat Brad Anderson, 36 percent to 33 percent, with 25 percent of voters undecided. As a reminder of
what's at stake:
Outgoing Republican Secretary of State Matt Schultz is famous for trying to scare immigrants into not voting, though GOP candidate Paul Pate likes to praise Schultz's "good stewardship." So, of course, Pate's been endorsed by GOP neanderthal Rep. Steve King, who thinks Democrats are just going to start stealing elections if they win the SOS race this fall.
The 25 percent of voters who remain undecided highlight why it's important to be sure that Anderson has the money he needs to mount a serious campaign. Voters often don't have much information about down-ballot races like secretary of state, making direct voter contact and GOTV crucial. That means even relatively small contributions can have an outsize impact.
