While most eyes were focused on the race for Congress during Tuesday’s General Election, there were some results involving candidates for the Iowa Legislature that became interesting, as well.  The Omaha-World Herald reports Republican Jack Drake, who has held the seat for 22 years, will have at least one more term in District 21. Drake successfully defended his seat against Tim Ennis, a Democrat from Corning. Ennis had attempted to make Drake’s years of experience an issue against him in the race, but it didn’t stick: Drake received slightly more than 64 percent of the vote. In House District 20, Greenfield Republican incumbent and former State Trooper Clel Baulder received nearly 60-percent of the vote in defeating challenger Steve Roe, a Democrat from Lake Panorama.

In House District 12, Brian Best, a Republican from Glidden, defeated incumbent Dan Muhlbauer, a Democrat from Manilla. Gun control had become an issue in the race. Both candidates also had spoken of the need to address rural infrastructure.
