Iowa GOP House Members Will Report a Record Fundraising Quarter
7 Apr 2021
Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) and Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) will report a record-breaking fundraising quarter after the Democrats’ campaign arm targets their Iowa seats as an offensive opportunity.
This comes after the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) announced their list of 22 seats they are looking to play offense on and pad their Democrat majority with more seats. Hinson and Miller-Meeks were both on their list.
Hinson will report she has raised over $570,000 with more than $400,000 cash-on-hand in the first quarter of 2021, initially reported on Tuesday by the Iowa Field Report. Hinson also added more than 3,500 new donors. The amount raised is likely a record-breaking number for an Iowa congressional incumbent, said the Field Report. This will put Hinson in a solid position to fend off any Democrat challenger in the 2022 midterm.

The congressional committee tasked with adjudicating Iowa’s still-unsettled 2nd District election is giving both campaigns until March 29 to file written responses to a series of questions intended to govern its next steps.
Committee Chair U.S. Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., postponed a vote on Miller-Meeks’ motion to dismiss Hart s election challenge last week. And she has directed lawyers representing each campaign to answer written questions laying out their cases before the end of the month.
“Both parties views will help inform how this committee can best render its quote independent final judgment unquote about which candidate won the election and is entitled to this House seat,” Lofgren said during the committee meeting.
