Only John Norris can win general election

In just a few short weeks, Democrats will be choosing one of several fine people to run against Kim Reynolds for Iowa governor. In casting my vote, I have one overriding concern: Which one has the best chance to beat Kim Reynolds?

Reynolds is vulnerable due to this being her first independent run and her signing of many controversial bills this legislative session, but Democratic voters need to remember that we need to nominate someone who can carry more than one or two counties.

In my opinion, there is only one candidate with the experience, the personality, and the ability to connect with Iowa's rural voters who have consistently voted for Branstad and Reynolds.

That candidate is John Norris.

I urge all my fellow Democrats (and independents) to vote on June 5 (or before) for Norris, the only candidate who can beat Kim Reynolds.
