Iowa Republicans appear to have held off Democratic challengers across the board in Iowa's four congressional races on Tuesday night.

In the 3rd congressional district, incumbent representative Zach Nunn defeated Democrat Lanon Baccam by about 16,000 thousand votes, or 3% with 100% of the vote in. He'll return to Washington D.C. for a second term in Congress.

Much more comfortable victories for Ashley Hinson and Randy Feenstra in the 2nd and 4th congressional districts, respectively, both winning their races by double digits. Both will back in Congress for a third term in January.

While the race has not been called, Republican incumbent Mariannette Miller-Meeks has declared victory in the race for Iowa's 1st congressional district seat, leading Democrat Christina Bohannon by less than 500 votes as of Wednesday morning.

Miller-Meeks previously beat Bohannon by about 20,000 votes in 2022.
