Let’s make them squeal!
Republican Joni Ernst, the first woman to represent Iowa in Congress and first female combat veteran to serve as US Senator, delivered her victory speech late Tuesday from Iowa.
“We didn’t agree on much but I admire anyone who is willing to stand up and fight for what they believe in. Well, Iowa. Well, Iowa, we did it! We did it!… It’s a long way from Red Oak to Washington, from the biscuit line at Hardees to the United States Senate. But, thanks to all of you, we are heading to Washington… And, we are going to make ’em squeal! “
Fantastic.
Ernst won by 7 percentage points.
Just as the Des Moines Register predicted.
