Hubbell picks Sen. Rita Hart of Wheatland as running mate

Good farm background, good on policy, eastern Iowa.

from what I have read she is more real about farm issues than Reynolds who merely mouths what she is told from the Koch brothers.
Seems like an excellent choice, Mr. Hubbell!

Nice woman and she seems to be a genuine person who will talk the talk and walk the walk. And I don't think she's afraid of a little hard work. One last thing, I think she can counter the image of Hubbell as an elitist. And that's huge because Reynolds has already started to paint herself as a "regular" person.

Kim's inept administration plus Trump screwing with international trade, has a lot of rural voters (finally) concerned.
