Ernst Pulls Aways from GOP Rivals

A new Suffolk poll in Iowa finds Joni Ernst (R) leads all four of her Republican opponents for the GOP Senate nomination by between 20% and 34%.

Said pollster David Paleologos: “Joni Ernst has caught the imagination of Republican voters and is extending and accelerating her advantage over her GOP opponents. In the April statewide poll, Ernst had just overtaken Mark Jacobs, and it was close at that point. Now, the bellwethers are confirming her improved standing and solid strength in the Republican primary.”
