A majority of Iowans do not want 87-year-old Sen. Chuck Grassley to run in 2022

Here is the Des Moines Register:

A majority of Iowans, including a third of Iowa Republicans, say they hope U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley decides not to seek reelection in 2022, a new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll shows.

The 87-year-old Republican has served in elected office continuously since 1959, when he joined the state Legislature, and he is mulling an eighth run for the U.S. Senate in the coming midterms. He would be 95 at the end of another six-year term.

According to the poll, just 28% of Iowans hope Grassley decides to run again, and 55% say they hope he does not. Another 17% are unsure.

The poll of 775 Iowa adults was conducted March 7-10 by Selzer & Co. of Des Moines. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

Read the rest here. Whatever Grassley decides, the retirement of Republican senators Pat Toomey (PA), Rob Portmann (OH), Roy Blunt (MO), and Richard Burr (NC) will make the 2022 elections a real barn burner.
