Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : Trump won there by 27 points.
56% : Trump carried this district by 21 points just a few months prior.
34% : The opposition has flipped what was considered to be a somewhat 'safe' GOP Senate, in a district Donald Trump carried by double digits in November: Democrats spent money on this race, plus their 'high propensity' voters always turn out.
22% : "Mike Zimmer's victory in Senate District 35, which President Trump won in November with nearly 60% of the vote, is a clear rejection of the Republican agenda led by Kim Reynolds and the Senate Republicans that have failed Iowans," Senate Democratic Leader Janice Weiner said in a statement.
