Chuck Schumer said he was staying out of Iowa’s Democratic Senate primary. But new filings tell a different story: Schumer-aligned money and a billionaire-backed dark money machine are quietly boosting moderate Josh Turek over progressive Zach Wahls.

I’m voting for Zach Wahls today. Tough decision but his willingness to challenge the “do nothing” Democrats is what I found most appealing

Good morning Iowa! Today is Election Day, and polls are open until 8PM. You can find all the information you need about voting today, including your polling location, information about same-day registration, and more here: sos.iowa.gov/elections-vo...

Why I’m Backing Zach Wahls for US Senate

OPINION: Here's why Quentin Hart, the former mayor of Waterloo, said he is supporting Zach Wahls for the U.S.

This campaign started with a simple conviction: Iowa deserves a senator who is actually working for Iowans. Not for party bosses. Not for outside special interests. Not for the corporations and the billionaires who have corrupted our politics and rigged our economy. For Iowa. For us. For you.

I'm asking for your vote tomorrow

I would be honored to be your Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate.

Over on Twitter, Kim Reynolds — whose poor comms staffer doesn’t even know how to spell “Carhartt” — is accusing Rob Sand of playing dress up, which is funny, because I don’t remember her showing up with a chainsaw after a derecho leveled Cedar Rapids.

A month before Josh Turek struggled through a denial that he wasn't a D.C. insider during the Iowa Democratic primary debate for the Senate, he took $20,000 from Senator Chuck Schumer and allies. This is a Schumer candidacy. It has been a Schumer candidacy.

This baseless complaint brought by the Turek campaign was unanimously dismissed by the bipartisan Iowa Senate Ethics Committee. The Turek campaign is worried the $10 million that Chuck Schumer’s dark money network is spending to try and buy Josh the Senate nomination won’t be enough.

Just posted: Pete D'Alessandro makes his case for @zachwahls.bsky.social in the #IASen Democratic primary. He starts with a simple question: “What kind of candidate can rebuild trust with working people across this state?” www.bleedingheartland.com/2026/05/21/t...

The Democratic Party has to stand for something real. Zach Wahls gets it

Pete D'Alessandro: The Democratic Party cannot rebuild in places like Iowa by acting as a softer version of Republican politics.

They are not even bothering to hide the corruption anymore. Donald Trump is using our tax dollars as his personal piggy bank to reward his loyal allies. Ashley Hinson is cheering him on. It has to stop.

We don't need more Fettermans in the US Senate. I would be a proud YES vote to end the war in Iran.

More Perfect Union@moreperfectunion.bsky.social · 3mo ago

BREAKING: The Senate just voted not to advance an Iran War Powers Resolution 49-50. John Fetterman was the decisive vote against it. The resolution was intended to limit Trump's ability to wage war on Iran.

Donald Trump is the most serious threat to American democracy in our lifetimes. Democrats need to stop bringing strongly worded letters to a constitutional crisis. Here's my plan to fight back like we actually mean it ⬇️ zachwahls.substack.com/p/restoring-...

I’m running for the US Senate to fix the rigged system and fight for Iowa families. This isn’t about left vs right, it’s about right vs wrong. We’re building a grassroots team that is showing up across Iowa. I hope you’ll join us.

There's a clear choice in this primary on immigration: My opponent, Josh Turek, voted with Republicans to pass SF2340, "Iowa's worst-ever immigration law" according to @aclu.org. I voted against this bill because it makes all Iowans less safe.

There is a reason dozens of Iowa unions back my campaign for U.S. Senate. They know I’m the candidate who will shake up the status quo, crush the corruption, and deliver for working families.

@zachwahls.bsky.social, whose primary opponent has received almost $7 MILLION in backing from a Schumer-adjacent SuperPAC: "Dark money has an agenda, and that agenda is to protect the broken status quo and the failed leadership of Senator Schumer."

Dark money has an agenda, and that agenda is protecting the failed leadership of Chuck Schumer and an establishment that has failed Iowans.
