In the wake of his nomination as the Democratic candidate for Iowa Senate District 37, Zach Wahls issued the following statement:
“I am incredibly grateful to all the people who pitched in to make my victory possible, and I am honored to be the Democratic nominee. When I delivered my speech defending same-sex marriage back in 2011, I had no idea it would one day lead me back to the Iowa legislature. Our campaign marks a new generation of leadership in Iowa politics, and I am proud to have worked alongside so many young people in breaking primary turnout records in our district and across the state. This is an all-hands-on-deck moment that will define the future of our state for generations to come, and last night shows Iowans are up to the challenge and ready for change.”
