Democrat Theresa Greenfield announced she will run to oust Republican Sen. Joni Ernst.

"I'm a proud farm kid with farm kid values," the Democrat says in a video she released Monday morning. During the video, Greenfield walks through a farm and talks about her family's values of hard work and opportunity.

In the video and a news release, Greenfield begins to show the shape of her case against Ernst.

"Joni Ernst told us she'd be different and said she'd to go to Washington to 'make 'em squeal,' but the special interests and corporate lobbyists keep feasting like hogs at the trough," Greenfield said.

Other than the big screw up by her campaign manager (falsifying names on her petitions) my understanding is that Greenfield is a top candidate.

Don't know much about Eddie Mauro and Kimberly Graham, but have heard much good about Greenfield.
