personal donation to Abby

January 31, 2018

Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco cash has officially entered Iowa politics in 2018. We now know that Pelosi’s campaign personally donated to Abby Finkenauer.

This comes just a week after New York’s Joe Crowley (4th in Democratic leadership) announced that he will be using his vast New York and DC networks to fundraise for Abby, and one day after her primary opponent, Thomas Heckroth announced that several more local Iowan officials and leaders have lined up behind him.

This means:

  • Abby Finkenauer will vote for Nancy Pelosi for Speaker of the House.
  • Abby Finkenauer agrees with Pelosi that $2,000 bonuses for middle-class workers are “crumbs.”
  • San Fran, New York, and DC money will be flooding into Iowa to try and buy a blue-collar congressional seat in Northeast Iowa.

This is great news for Rod Blum, as Nancy Pelosi is the most unpopular political figure in each competitive district across the country.
