REMINDER: Ohio and Iowa are not battlegrounds in 2024

[MarkD]

I think both Ohio and Iowa could be battlegrounds in 2024. Both states voted for Obama twice. The Iowa Democratic Party did pretty well in 2018, keeping most statewide races within a few points and winning 3 out of 4 U.S. House races. Likewise the Ohio Democratic Party did well in 2018, having a floor of at least 46% in every state executive race, Sen. Brown winning comfortably, and getting 47% in the 16 U.S. House races, if you aggregate all of the votes. I think there is still a good possibility that Biden will be doing well in polls, and that the GOP nominee will not be as popular as Trump was with rural voters.
