‘She Tried To Steal The Election!’ Ernst Attacks Pelosi Over Iowa Congressional Race

Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) attacked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) Tuesday, alleging that Pelosi tried to steal the 2020 election for Iowa’s 2nd congressional district, won by Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks over Democrat Rita Hart. Miller-Meeks won that election by six votes. Ernst’s speech comes as Republicans and Democrats in both chambers debate voting rights and the filibuster.
