Republican Party of Iowa Chairman Jeff Kaufmann released the following statement in response to the Iowa Supreme Court’s ruling that Finkenauer will remain on the primary ballot:

“The Iowa Supreme Court has made their ruling and Finkenauer will remain on the primary ballot.

“No matter which way the court ruled, Finkenauer will never be a U.S. Senator from Iowa. Iowans saw everything they needed to see in Finkenauer’s effort to get on the ballot. For someone who claims to have a strong campaign, she could barely reach the minimum requirement for petition signatures.”
