Republican state Sen. Zach Nunn leads Democrat Rep. Cindy Axne (IA), according to a recent poll for Iowa’s Third Congressional District.
on Friday on behalf of the NRCC showed that Nunn leads Axne in the swing district by two points. Forty-six percent said they would vote for Nunn, while 44 percent said Axne, which is inside the poll’s five percent margin.
