Battleground Iowa House race takes bizarre turn with alleged RFK Jr. intervention
A Libertarian candidate in Iowa's 3rd Congressional District claims Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and GOP Rep. Zach Nunn pressured him to drop out of the race. Battaglia was removed from the ballot for not using his legal name but plans to appeal. Kennedy allegedly warned that a Democratic victory would harm him personally.
