Sioux Center, Iowa – A Sioux Center man at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee is not only a delegate, he’s a historian who has written a book about William Jennings Bryan and Hubert Humphrey — Democrats who run for president. Jeff Taylor is a political science professor at Dordt University and, was also a delegate at the Republican national convention in 2012.
Taylor, who had a seat on the convention floor with the rest of the Iowa delegates, says he’s been observing the teleprompter on stage to see how closely speakers follow the script.
Taylor says that message has filtered down to Iowa delegates, too.
Taylor says that unity was illustrated when Trump entered the convention arena on Monday night and the crowd cheered, applauded and repeated Trump’s “fight, fight, fight” mantra.
Taylor has been a state senator since 2021. He’s running for a second term this year and has no opposition on the General Election ballot.
