Study candidates before casting vote

After listening to Mariannette Miller-Meeks on Iowa Press never answer a question outright and verbosely expound on the same old, tired, Republican talking points we have been hearing ever since announcing their one goal was to destroy the president, I have concluded she does not meet my Iowa value standards.
Very simply they are: always tell the unvarnished trust, be an independent, rational thinker, answer all questions honestly, have a concern for and a strategy to strengthen the middle class, and understand compromise is not a dirty word.
Be an informed voter on Nov. 4.
