MARION, Iowa – Ashley Hinson, the Republican nominee for Congress in Iowa’s 1st Congressional District, released her second TV ad titled “Grace.” The ad will air across the district.

Watch:

“In times of crisis, Iowans have always turned to our faith. To the things that unite us. Now, more than ever, we need that. American is the greatest country in the world. Because of our farms, our small towns, our churches. There is nothing America can’t overcome if we always remember where we came from,” Hinson said in the ad

The ad also features Hinson playing Amazing Grace on her violin in the background.

She is in the highest tier of the ‘Young Gun Program’ by the National Republican Congressional Committee after establishing her clear path to victory. National political forecasters believe Iowa’s 1st Congressional District will be one of the most competitive races in 2020. The Cook Political Report has rated the race as “Toss Up.”

Hinson has a record of winning tight elections. She won in 2018 in a swing district to help hold the Iowa House majority and outperformed the Republican ticket by 5-8 points across House District 67. She won 9 of 13 precincts in House District 67 despite Democratic outside groups outspending Republican outside groups.
