ENDORSEMENTS CAN HAVE AN IMPACT IN TIGHT RACES AND ENDORSEMENTS MAY BE A FACTOR AS FIVE CANDIDATES COMPETE IN THIS YEAR’S REPUBLICAN PRIMARY FOR GOVERNOR OF IOWA.
CONGRESSMAN RANDY FEENSTRA IS ONE OF THE FIVE CANDIDATES SEEKING TO WIN THAT JUNE PRIMARY, AND
IS ASKING PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR HIS ENDORSEMENT.
FEENSTRA MADE HIS CASE DIRECTLY TO TRUMP, FLYING ON AIR FORCE ONE DURING THE PRESIDENT’S RECENT TRIP TO IOWA AND SAYS HE HAD A LOT OF TIME WITH TRUMP DURING THE TRIP TO WORK ON EARNING HIS ENDORSEMENT.
