Two Democratic Councilors Endorse Republican Zach Nunn

Republican Rep. Zach Nunn and Democrat state Sen. Sarah Trone Garriott are competing for Iowa’s 3rd Congressional District seat, with a televised debate addressing issues including the economy, health care, immigration, abortion and water quality. Nunn is seeking another term and has highlighted bipartisan legislation on military family leave and rural housing, while advocating border enforcement alongside legal immigration pathways. His campaign is also featuring Des Moines City Council Democrats Mike Simonson and Joe Gatto in an endorsement ad, despite Simonson’s prior support for Trone Garriott; the endorsements have drawn backlash from local Democrats. Trone Garriott’s campaign did not immediately comment on the ad.
