IDP Chair Releases Statement on IA-01 Recount Results

December 2, 2024

DES MOINES – On Dec 2nd, Iowa Democratic Party Chair Rita Hart released the following statement regarding the recount results in Iowa’s First Congressional District:

“Christina Bohannan outperformed the top of the ticket by one of the widest margins in the country. Unfortunately, this year wasn’t quite enough. Her campaign is a model for putting people over politics,” said IDP Chair Rita Hart. “We hope that a re-elected Miller-Meeks will view this election as a wake-up call and she gets to work representing Iowans instead of special interests. Regardless, Iowa Democrats will be working to hold her accountable to her constituents’ best interests.”
