Zach Lahn’s win in Iowa is a rare rebuke to Trump, who still has an iron grip on the party
Zach Lahn won Iowa’s gubernatorial Republican primary with 38% of the vote, defeating Randy Feenstra, whom President Donald Trump endorsed. Trump’s endorsement failed to secure Feenstra’s victory, marking a rare instance of Republican voters rejecting Trump’s influence ahead of the November midterm elections.
