The survey appears to predict a close race between Republicans and Democrats up and down the ballot in the Hawkeye State.
Trump won the state by 9 points in 2016, but Democrats made inroads in the state in 2018, flipping two House seats. The Cook Political Report rates the races for Iowa’s first, second and third House seats as “toss-ups” for the 2020 general election.
