Here's a potential 2020 map:



IA-01 and IA-02 are tossups pretty much, while IA-03 and IA-04 are safe D and R respectively.

So in terms of net effect it would just be switching the Safe D district from 2 to 3. I guess that's fine. I think Loebsack and Finkenauer would be relatively safe for a while in this map. They both seem to be popular and are pretty good fits for their districts.

Iowa is interesting because it seems to be the only place where the "population tilting" of the Midwest (east is flat or losing population, west is flat or gaining population) is working in reverse. Western Iowa is emptying out fast, Eastern Iowa is doing just fine.

IDK about the Davenport-Iowa City-Dubuque seat.

Hopefully an Iowa expert can weigh in, but it looks more or less stable for the decade.
