Elections analysts move 2 Iowa U.S. House races to 'toss-up' after Kamala Harris surge

Des Moines Register . . .

Nonpartisan elections analysts at the Cook Political Report have moved two Iowa congressional races into their most competitive category after previously favoring Republicans to win.

The 1st and 3rd District U.S. House races in Iowa are now considered true "toss-ups," the group said Friday, indicating either party could win. They had previously been rated as "leaning" toward Republicans.

The change follows weeks of significant upheaval in the nation's political landscape. After Democratic President Joe Biden ended his reelection effort and Vice President Kamala Harris earned the party's nomination, the presidential race appears to have narrowed significantly in Iowa.
