Lahn, the Republican nominee for governor, says Trump’s visit to northwest Iowa is intended to energize supporters and encourage turnout.
Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird, who is seeking reelection, says northwest Iowa will play a key role in her campaign.
Lahn pointed to northwest Iowa’s role in helping Gov. Kim Reynolds win election in 2018 and says Republican turnout will be critical.
