The day after: What does Election Day 2024 mean for Iowa?

with Dave Busiek, Rekha Basu, Laura Belin, Art Cullen, Dennis Goldford, Bob Leonard, Barry Piatt and Ed Tibbetts.

On this episode of Iowa Down Ballot, moderator Dave Busiek talks with a panel of longtime Iowa journalists and analysts about how 2024 shook out in Iowa. Was it the economy? Or is there a larger cultural force at work that had Trump running away with the state?
