Missouri made 47% of its 30 3-point attempts, while Iowa State shot 38% from long range. Iowa State outrebounded Missouri 38-25, but the Tigers negated the advantage on the glass by scoring 20 points off nine Cyclones turnovers.

Iowa Democrats select Rita Hart as chairwoman

News

January 28th, 2023 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa Democratic Party’s state central committee has elected a former state senator who lost a 2020 congressional race by six votes as its chairwoman. Rita Hart was also the party’s 2018 nominee for lieutenant governor. “My focus is squarely on helping our party begin winning elections again,” Hart said. “…I’m under no illusions that this
will be easy and I know that it will take time.” Hart has been the leader of Clinton County Democrats for the past year. She says county parties need more support to be effective.

“Serving as IDP chair has never been an ambition of mine, but I do care deeply about the success of Iowa Democrats,” Hart said. “…I’ve seen time and time again how the policies that our leaders implement affect everyday Iowans.” Hart takes over as Iowa Republicans hold firm majorities in the state legislature and all six seats in Iowa’s federal delegation. Hart, a former teacher in two small school districts, won two state senate races in a predominantly rural district.

“I’ve won two races in a state senate district that Donald Trump carried twice,” Hart said, “and in my 2020 congressional race, we raised $5 million and outperformed Joe Biden by more than any of the other Iowa congressional races.” Hart’s election came in hour four of a sometimes turbulent meeting of the Iowa Democratic Party’s state central committee. Some members tried to delay considering changes in the party’s governing structure and questioned who was allowed by party rules to vote in the race for chair.

Brittany Ruland, one of the other two candidates who sought the job of party chair, said the meeting had been a bit more heated than everyone might have been prepared for.  “Whatever differences we might have, you know they really pale in comparison to what we’re looking towards what the Iowa GOP is doing right now,” she said. Ruland ran a key 2022 race that saw a Democrat defeat the Republican who was president of the state senate.

Democrats held their meeting virtually and it took more than an hour to tally the electronic ballots in the race for chair, which Hart won with 69 percent support.

Authorities had said previously, the 15 passenger van, a 2002 Chevy Express, went out of control on the 100% snow/ice covered roads at around 6:49-a.m, and crashed near Wellsburg.

None of the vehicle’s occupants were wearing a seat belt, and the children were not in a child restraint seat.

The Patrol identified those who died as: 22-year-old Ervin J. Borntreger, 1-year old Marlin Borntreger, 4-year-old Emma Borntreger, and 2-year-old Rebecca Borntreger, all of Dehli (IA).

Those injured were identified as:
