- 图雷克在全国民主党及汤姆·哈金的支持下击败瓦尔茨
- 图雷克将对阵获得特朗普及共和党领袖背书的共和党人阿什利·辛普森
- 分析人士认为该席位大概率仍属共和党，但民调显示竞争胶着，图雷克以微弱优势领先
华盛顿6月2日路透电——自称“常识型草原民粹主义者”的艾奥瓦州众议员乔希·图雷克周二赢得联邦参议院民主党提名，有望在11月大选中成为该农业州自2008年以来首位民主党参议员。
据美联社报道，在30.6%的选票完成计票后，获得全国民主党及前民主党参议员汤姆·哈金背书的图雷克以63.7%比36.3%击败州参议员扎克·瓦尔茨。他将与赢得该开放席位共和党提名的联邦众议员阿什利·辛普森展开对决。

图雷克和辛普森将角逐接替共和党人乔尼·恩斯特的席位。恩斯特已连任两届参议员，同时是退役军官，她决定退休让民主党看到了在中期选举中拿下该席位、进而有望掌控参议院的希望。
现年47岁的图雷克曾获残奥会轮椅篮球金牌，此前多次在共和党传统优势选区当选，其支持者认为，在经济焦虑情绪抬头的当下，这一经历将帮助他争取不满现状的共和党选民和独立选民。他还倡导医保可及性、生活工资、保障性住房等对工薪家庭至关重要的政策。
现年42岁的辛普森已连任三届众议员，此前是新闻主播，获得总统唐纳德·特朗普、参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩以及恩斯特的背书。她曾反对最终将同性婚姻权写入法律的法案，并以支持特朗普2025年减税和支出法案作为竞选主张之一。
独立分析机构将艾奥瓦州开放的参议院席位评级为“大概率仍属共和党”。据民调追踪网站RealClearPolitics.com的数据，11月的选情胶着，图雷克以一个百分点的微弱优势领先。

- Turek defeats Wahls with backing from national Democrats and Tom Harkin
- Turek faces Republican Ashley Hinson, who is endorsed by Trump and GOP leaders
- Analysts see seat likely Republican, but polls show tight race with Turek narrowly ahead
WASHINGTON, June 2 (Reuters) – Iowa State Representative Josh Turek, who describes himself as a “common-sense prairie populist,” won the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate on Tuesday and a chance in November to become the party’s first senator from the farm-belt state since 2008.
Turek, who is backed by national Democrats and former Democratic Senator Tom Harkin, defeated state Senator Zach Wahls 63.7%-36.3% with 30.6% of the vote counted, according to the Associated Press. He will square off against Republican U.S. Representative Ashley Hinson, who won her party’s nomination for the open seat.

Turek and Hinson are running to replace Republican Joni Ernst, a two-term senator and retired military officer whose decision to retire from Congress has given Democrats hopes of picking up the seat in the general election and potentially taking control of the Senate.
Turek, a 47-year-old gold medalist in Paralympic wheelchair basketball, has a history of getting elected in Republican areas, which supporters say could help him appeal to disaffected Republicans and independents at a time of rising economic anxiety. He has also championed access to healthcare, a living wage, affordable housing and other policies important to working families.
Hinson, a 42-year-old three-term congresswoman and former news anchor, is backed by President Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Ernst. She opposed legislation that ultimately codified the right to same-sex marriage and has campaigned on her support for Trump’s 2025 tax-cut and spending bill.
Independent analysts rate Iowa’s open Senate seat as likely to remain Republican. Polling data suggests a tight race in November, with Turek leading by a single percentage point, according to the poll-tracking website, RealClearPolitics.com.
