State Senator Zach Wahls of Coralville has announced he’s running for the US Senate seat currently occupied by Joni Ernst.
The Gazette reports Wahls said it’s time for a new generation of political leaders, and accused national politicians in both parties of screwing over Iowa families for too long. He says Iowa needs someone who will have the courage to stand up to the establishment to fight for us. Wahls said he believes Iowa voters of all political ideologies are ready for change.
He is the third Democrat to announce his candidacy for Ernst’s seat, joining state representative JD Scholten and chamber of commerce leader Nathan Sage of Indianola.
