“Normally, any incumbent being outspent this drastically by a credible opponent would be in trouble, but Republicans in the 4th district have stood by Steve King for years, even when he’s an embarrassment to the state,” stated Sam Roecker, a Democratic tactician in Des Moines.
King almost was defeated by Democrat J.D. Scholten two years ago, winning by just three points in his solid-red district after prevailing by 20-plus points four years ago.
