Thanks, Doug. With the recent release of the DSM Reg poll, it appears increasingly likely that Bohannon will secure a win. If successful, I am hopeful she will champion essential family and children’s issues, from expanding access to OB-GYN services, affordable child care, and family leave to advocating for a cleaner environment—all complementing her educational priorities outlined on her website. Additionally, her commitment to senior care signals her potential to lead in a comprehensive array of family policies. Bohannon’s leadership in women’s reproductive health care, which likely contributed to her favorable polling, could expand to a powerful voice for holistic family well-being.

Thanks, Doug, for this column on Christine Bohannon who will be a great representative for her district and all of Iowa. I am supporting her with contributions since I’m not able to vote for her, though I will happily cast my vote for Lanon Baccam and all the other Democrats, at both the local and national levels, who want to restore my rights to my own body. The government and lawmakers in Iowa were wrong to insert themselves into the exam rooms with women and their doctors. Now it’s my turn, as a woman, to vote them out of office. The gender gap is real, and women will make a difference in the outcome of many races on November 5.
