爱荷华州参议员选举:美联社宣布图雷克当选 民主党夺下席位

美联社11月3日晚宣布,民主党候选人 Josh Turek 赢得爱荷华州联邦参议员选举,击败共和党候选人、联邦众议员 Ashley Hinson,民主党夺下这一席位。爱荷华州位于美国中西部,州府为 Des Moines。这一席位因现任参议员 Joni Ernst 不再竞选连任而空缺。
美联社结果页快照显示,全州1,656个选区中已有1,506个报告结果,约占90.94%,估计已计票约91.6%;Turek 得票644,188张,Hinson 得票585,117张,自由党候选人 Thomas Laehn 得票38,866张。计票仍在继续,上述票数为非官方数字,最终结果以州选举部门认证为准。
Turek 是爱荷华州州众议员,也曾是美国轮椅篮球国家队成员、两届残奥会金牌得主;Hinson 自2021年起任联邦众议员,此次放弃众议员席位竞选参议员。Turek 当选后,爱荷华州的两个联邦参议员席位由两党各占一席。

Iowa Senate Election: AP Calls Race for Turek as Democrats Flip the Seat
The Associated Press called Iowa's U.S. Senate race on the evening of November 3 for Democratic candidate Josh Turek, who defeated Republican U.S. Representative Ashley Hinson as Democrats flipped the seat. Iowa is in the Midwestern United States, and its capital is Des Moines. The seat was open because incumbent Senator Joni Ernst did not seek re-election.
The AP results page showed 1,506 of the state's 1,656 precincts reporting, about 90.94%, with an estimated 91.6% of votes counted; Turek had 644,188 votes to Hinson's 585,117, followed by Libertarian Thomas Laehn with 38,866. Counting is continuing; the figures are unofficial and final results are subject to certification by state election officials.
Turek is an Iowa state representative and a former member of the U.S. national wheelchair basketball team and two-time Paralympic gold medalist; Hinson has served in the U.S. House since 2021 and gave up her House seat to run for the Senate. With Turek's win, Iowa's two U.S. Senate seats are now split between the two parties.
