Sarah successfully flipped a Republican-held seat in the Iowa State Senate in 2020; then she took on the Republican State Senate president in 2022 and won before going on to defend her Trump-won seat again in 2024.

While Zach Nunn works for his party bosses and special interests, Sarah works for Iowa.
