Three issues. Three questions for Democrat Ivette Muhammad in Iowa House District 33.

Public campaign filings show nearly half of her recent outflows ($7,400 of $15,274) went to headquarters rent paid to Bruce Davidson, a candidate loan repayment to herself, and meals. Earlier filings list $5,400 in payments to former landlord Randy Karaidos—who later obtained a court judgment for possession of the headquarters. Security camera footage shows her approaching, taking, and leaving with an opponent’s campaign sign; the homeowner reported she later acknowledged it.

Our community deserves answers. Accountability matters. Vote Lynn Hammel on November 3.
