Democratic candidate Josh Turek holds slight edge over Ashley Hinson in Iowa Senate poll

Internal polling for Josh Turek’s campaign shows him at 46% against Republican Ashley Hinson’s 42%, with Libertarian Thomas Laehn at 6% and 6% undecided.

A survey commissioned by the Turek campaign and conducted by Global Strategy Group indicates the Democrat leads the Iowa Senate contest by four points. The Libertarian candidate draws a modest share, while a small portion of voters remain undecided. Turek’s advantage appears strongest among independents, and he enjoys a more favorable rating than Hinson, who is viewed less positively. The poll also notes President Donald Trump trails by nine points in the state, a notable shift in a traditionally GOP-leaning region.

Why it matters

The Iowa Senate race could influence the balance of power in a key battleground state ahead of the national election.
