SEN. CHUCK GRASSLEY ON HUNTER BIDEN’S BUSINESS DEALINGS: THESE ARE ‘LEGITIMATE ALLEGATIONS’

This is up from historically low numbers in July, when a similar poll found only 10% of Iowa poll interviewees believed the nation was on the right path.

The latest Des Moines Register poll in the state’s Senate races is turning heads, as it indicates 89-year-old Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley – who has served in the Senate for four decades – up by only three points over Democratic challenger and retired Navy Adm. Mike Franken.

The poll indicates a closer Senate contest than many believed and that Grassley’s facing his toughest re-election to date, losing a chunk of support from independent voters and six in 10 saying his age is a concern. However, the poll has yet to trigger any outside spending by pro-GOP groups to defend the longest serving Republican in the chamber.
