  • Theresa Greenfield Background
    THERESA GREENFIELD BACKGROUND The day her husband was killed in an accident at work changed everything for Theresa Greenfield. With a thirteen month- old and another on the way, Theresa had to rely on Social Security to raise her family. Now politicians are talking about gutting Social Security -- letting the same Wall Street banks that have donated to these politicians -- gambling it away on the stock market. Greenfield will fight to protect Social Security to ensure seniors receive the hard-earned retirement they’ve earned and deserve. THE DAY HER HUSBAND WAS KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT AT WORK CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR THERESA GREENFIELD. WITH A THIRTEEN MONTH-OLD AND ANOTHER ON THE WAY, THERESA HAD TO RELY ON SOCIAL SECURITY TO RAISE HER FAMILY. Greenfield’s First Husband Was A Journeyman Lineman And IBEW Union Member Who Was Killed On The Job. “Her first husband was a journeyman lineman and IBEW (electrical workers union) member who was killed on the job. At the time of his death, Greenfield was just 24 years old with a one-year-old son and four months pregnant with another. Social security, workers’ compensation and help from her family kept her on her feet during that time, allowing her to go back to college to train for a new career track to take care of her family.” [Iowa Starting Line, 2/3/18] Greenfield Was Just 24 Years Old With A One-Year-Old Son And Another Child On The Way When Her First Husband Passed Away. “Her first husband was a journeyman lineman and IBEW (electrical workers union) member who was killed on the job.

  • Did COVID Infect Twitter? an Analysis of Campaign Tweets in 2020 By
    Did COVID Infect Twitter? An analysis of campaign Tweets in 2020 by Jacob Keith Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of Political Science Hood College April 2021 1 Introduction COVID-19 upended standard campaign practices in 2020. From social distancing requirements to mask mandates, a typical rally was simply a non-starter for the American politician. While previous campaigns were dominated by large public appearances and a fleet of door-knocking volunteers and interns walking the streets, the circumstances of 2020 called for an entirely new approach. The pandemic purged the tools considered by many political scientists to be most effective (e.g., personal canvassing, rallies, en etc.) —pushing social media to the forefront of political campaign tactics. In recent years social media has become one tool amongst many for promoting their message, agenda- setting, reaching new voters, and mobilizing existing voters. Twitter, in particular, has been studied as an essential vehicle for political campaigns —and studies have found it to be an effective means by which a political campaign can engage with its constituency, establish agenda, and get out the vote. In this study, I use a content analysis to systematically examine the Twitter behavior of twenty U.S. Senate candidates to determine to what extent —if any —COVID-19 influenced the social media content of senatorial candidates in battleground states. It is important social scientists dissect the way the pandemic has influenced traditional campaigning to extend our understanding of the electoral landscape, partisanship, and the 2020 results. Background on the 2020 Election It is important that the context of the 2020 General Election is established.

  • Theresa Greenfield Background
    THERESA GREENFIELD BACKGROUND Theresa Greenfield believes that every Iowan has the right to quality, affordable health care coverage, even if they have a pre-existing condition. But she knows that too many Washington politicians are putting drug companies and insurance companies ahead of patients, and you can't stand up to the special interests in Washington if you accept their money. That is why she won't accept a dime in corporate PAC money, and as senator, Greenfield will work to make health care affordable for all Iowans. THERESA GREENFIELD BELIEVES THAT EVERY IOWAN HAS THE RIGHT TO QUALITY, AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE COVERAGE, EVEN IF THEY HAVE A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION. Theresa Greenfield’s Senate Campaign Website: “Health Care Is A Right, Not A Privilege.” [Theresa Greenfield for Iowa Website, Accessed 5/6/20] • Theresa Greenfield’s Senate Campaign Website: “But Sadly, For Too Many Iowans, Health Care Is Too Expensive And Not Accessible.” [Theresa Greenfield for Iowa Website, Accessed 5/6/20] Theresa Greenfield’s Senate Campaign Website: “Theresa Supports Access To Quality, Affordable Health Care — No Matter Who You Are Or Where You Live.” [Theresa Greenfield for Iowa Website, Accessed 5/6/20] Theresa Greenfield’s Senate Campaign Website: “No Iowan Should Lose Their Health Care Coverage Because Of A Pre-Existing Health Condition.” “No Iowan should lose their health care coverage because of a pre-existing health condition, and we should be working to expand access and make health care more affordable across the state and the country.”

  • The Political Neophyte Democrats Are Betting on to Capture the Senate
    2020 ELECTIONS The political neophyte Democrats are betting on to capture the Senate The national party must first shepherd its chosen candidate, Theresa Greenfield, through an increasingly tricky Iowa primary. Sen. Joni Ernst's Senate seat has become a major target for Democrats in this year's elections. | Samuel Corum/Getty Images B y JAMES ARKIN 05/24/2020 06:50 AM EDT Updated: 05/24/2020 12:21 PM EDT Senate Democrats have a lot riding on Theresa Greenfield, a political neophyte about to get her first major test in next month's Iowa primary. The party is placing a surprisingly large bet on the real estate executive to take on first-term GOP Sen. Joni Ernst in a bid to expand their path back to the Senate majority. If Greenfield wins the June 2 primary, she'll face Ernst in a state that’s turned against Democrats since 2012, when Barack Obama carried it for the second time. The closing weeks before the primary have brought a flurry of activity: Democrats’ leading super PAC has already spent $6 million on television ads to boost the previously unknown Greenfield’s positive image, and another super PAC is spending $1 million attacking one of her opponents. The intervention has rankled the other Democratic candidates, who say the Washington establishment is trying to smother their chances. Iowa looms as a potential blockbuster on the Senate map — a contest Democrats need to put firmly in play as part of their takeover strategy. It’s not yet a top-tier race on the level of Arizona or North Carolina, but Democrats say they can win despite Iowa's lurch to the right in recent years, including Ernst's 2014 victory and Donald Trump's decisive win in 2016.

Executive Summary This memorandum provides a detailed analysis of the 2020 election results to date and their implications on the Executive Branch and composition of the 117th Congress,1 including the following: II. Overview of Election Results (President, Congress, and Governors) III. Key Changes to Congressional Committees Overseeing Health Policy IV. Select Ballot Initiatives and Referenda V. Health Care Impact and Analysis a. Lame Duck Preview b. Preview of Agenda for 117th Congress c. Preview of Biden Administration Health Care Priorities Although many states have not yet formally certified their vote counts, and several legal challenges remain outstanding, it appears that former Vice President Joe Biden has become the President-elect. Democrats are also likely to maintain control of the House of Representatives, though with a slimmer majority than in the current Congress. Control of the U.S. Senate is still undetermined, as both Georgia Senate seats are proceeding to runoff elections on January 5. Currently, Republicans will hold at least 50 seats and Democrats will hold 48 seats (including two Independent senators who caucus with the Democrats). II. Election 2020: Overview of Election Results President Former Vice President Joseph Biden (D) appears to have won the 2020 presidential election, defeating incumbent President Donald Trump (R) by winning both the Electoral College and the popular vote. At the time of this writing, one state, Georgia, has yet to be officially called in the Presidential race, but President-elect Biden appears to have won at least 290 electoral votes, 1 While there are still some races yet to be called, we are monitoring election results from multiple reputable sources including the Associated Press, Bloomberg Government, and Politico.
