... in 2004 President Bush won Iowa by only 10,059 votes. Bush won Sioux County with 14,229 votes, compared with Senator John Kerry's 2,259. It is truly remarkable what the people up there can do. It's too bad other kounties don't go up there and figure out how to duplicate their efforts in other strong Republican areas of our state. I remember my first days in Iowa Politics, I was young and dumb, and laughed when I saw that little Sioux Kounty on the list of top targeted kounties. I learned quickly how important Sioux and the surrounding kounties are to elections in Iowa. The register also reported that President Bush will be visiting NW Iowa for a political rally on Friday in Le Mars. It seems as if things are really falling into place.
