Congressman Steve King's Fight Against Vilsack for the 4th District Could be Decided by the College Vote

Congressman Steve King and Christie Vilsack haven't agreed to debate here in Ames, but they might want to.

The Iowa State Daily reports today that their race for the 4^th District could be decided by Ames and college voters in particular.

“There was a political scientist from Drake University who was recorded in a National Public Radio series, and he said Story County, and specifically the college town of Ames, could determine the outcome of the race,” said Madeline Becker, senior in political science and the president of Cyclones for Vilsack, told the Daily.

King and Vilsack debated recently on and again at the Clay County Fair on Saturday, but could not agree on a debate format for the Sept. 22 debate in Ames and canceled it.

The next debate between these two candidates will be Sept. 17 in the Franklin County Forum.
