Laura Belin and Spencer Dirks review a (surprisingly not slow) week in Iowa politics. They discussed a forum featuring every GOP candidate for governor except the front-runner, how Randy Feenstra has been campaigning, two contenders competing to be the top enemy of Satanists, a dark money group's TV ad praising State Auditor Rob Sand, and another notable endorsement for Joe Mitchell in IA-02. Other topics covered: Iowa's secretary of agriculture slammed his potential challenger, two upcoming special legislative elections, a state agency shelved a privatization plan, the sale of the Cedar Rapids Gazette, an online news source for Ames, and developments in several politically salient lawsuits.
