Despite appointing two of the three judges siding in favor of Reynolds' effort to reinstate a 2018 abortion ban, Iowa Supreme Court split on a ruling, leaving the ban blocked.

Upside: This is a solid win for Iowans and their reproductive rights.

Downside: The Iowa Democratic Party was utterly dependent on this as a wedge issue last election cycle and has proven inept at adapting strategy; unless they can find a way to win over voters, they're likely going to get creamed harder.

Yeah, I've definitely experienced the same. It's unfortunate as it's pretty cool to actually live in a state where you can actually meet candidates. I've also met so many wonderful people, despite the politics. I am here for the long haul (bought a house and everything). Hopefully it shifts back eventually.
