Defeated GOP challenger urges voters to oppose Hinson in Iowa Senate race

Former GOP challenger Jim Carlin, who recently lost his primary bid for the U.S. Senate, is urging voters to reject his successor, Rep. Ashley Hinson, in the upcoming general election. Carlin's refusal to endorse Hinson highlights internal party divisions and could impact voter sentiment in the race to replace retiring Sen. Joni Ernst. This dynamic underscores the ongoing tensions within the Republican Party as candidates vie for influence and support in a crucial Senate seat.
