Moms for Liberty short out in Iowa

 


But the unofficial 2023 results were an unambiguous win for Democrats and progressive groups in the Des Moines metro, central Iowa and elsewhere in the state. Democratic-backed slates were victorious in districts such as Johnston, Ankeny and West Des Moines. Few of the candidates promoted by area Republican legislators such as Rep. Eddie Andrews, R-Johnston, and Rep. Dan Gehlbach, R-Urbandale, managed to win a seat. Just one of the 13 candidates endorsed statewide by Moms for Liberty, a group that lobbied for the education law changes, won their race.
