Does Iowa have a Republican governor and senators? How about

It seems like keeping the people of Iowa happy would be important
for either political party due to the early caucuses.


Right now, Iowa is all-Democrat. The parties were split between the
Governor and Legislature, but the recent election has changed all
that, and we're back to single-party rule.


How does AWOS keep the people of Iowa happy?


They keep me *very* happy, but I suspect most Iowans have no idea that
AWOS even exists.


It doesn't matter it gets on the list of fed money spent in the state.


The AWOS at my airport (MI) is state funded... No federal funds the
airport manager is aware of (just phoned him)...
