ML Strategies has compiled recent polling and punditry on the 2012 Presidential, Senate, and House races. The race to the White House grows closer as Election Day approaches. In the past week of polling, roughly half have shown a slight Obama lead while the other half has Romney slightly leading. The control of the Senate remains uncertain: with eight races remaining pure tossups, it is not clear which party will be the majority in the 113th Congress. The House will likely remain in Republican control with anywhere 226 and 228 seats already solid, likely, or leaning Republican seats; 218 are needed for a majority.

Highlights of those investments include: . The Center Street Park and Ride; . Facility improvements to the operations and maintenance facility on DART Way; . Numerous replacement buses; . A new farebox system that is currently in the works; . And last, but not least, DART Central Station. The Commission’s goal in the creation of the Leaders in Motion award is to highlight these past efforts and encourage the next generation of leaders to champion the cause of public transit as well. “A vibrant transit system requires many leaders across the region, and we are so grateful for these gentlemen’s work,” said Peterson. The Des Moines Area Regional Transit Authority is the public transportation provider that serves Polk County. DART operates a family of transportation services that makes getting around the Greater Des Moines area easier and more convenient.

  • Vote Scorecard
    FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL ACTIOn VOTE SCORECARD 109TH CONGRESS 1ST SESSION U.S. House of Representatives Dear Voter and Friend of the Family: Family Research Council presents our Vote Scorecard for the First Session of the 109th Congress. This Scorecard contains a compilation of significant votes representing a cross section of issues affecting the family. These recorded votes occurred in the U.S. House of Representatives during the First Session of the 109th Congress. This scorecard shows how your elected officials voted on some of the critical issues involving the family. It is important to remember, however, that the votes you see here are only a few of the hundreds of recorded votes Members of Congress took in 2005. We have singled out for inclusion the most clear-cut, pro-family votes that came before Congress. The election of 2004 was touted by the media as the election that the “values voter” won. President George W. Bush was returned to the White House and pro-family candidates helped increase the Republican majority in both chambers of Congress. The House recognized the renewed importance of Congress’ role in protecting the family by passing legislation that included increased fines for indecency, protections of parental rights in cases of minors crossing state lines for an abortion, elimination of the death tax, promotion of ethical stem cell research and an attempt to halt the court-ordered starvation of Theresa Marie Schiavo. The hard fought victory of the 2004 election did not similarly translate into pro-family victories in the Senate. Bogged down by a debate over President Bush’s judicial nominees and fearful of a smaller but more vocal minority in the Senate, the Senate majority failed to act on the many initiatives taken by the House.
