. @hinsonashley says people are tired of political games. What she's not saying is how much she plays them too.
For example, Hide and Seek. #IA01

This is on HF 594, a bill that added a 24-hour waiting restriction to women seeking an abortion.
While this bill was debated and amendments voted on, she spent the entire time hiding outside the chamber, ducking in only to vote.
Which is comical, because...

That was just one instance, but @LauraRBelin put together a great article and collection of all the times she played Hide and Seek: https://www.bleedingheartland.com/2020/07/01/ashley-hinson-dodged-iowa-house-debates-on-high-profile-bills/
Ashley also likes to play The Blame Game. When her campaign was busted for multiple acts of plagiarism, she first said "the buck stops with me," but then called it a "partisan attack on me".
Are you responsible, or are you a victim? Pick one!

Ashley likes to play Dodgeball. She supported all kinds of extreme bills during her first term, then refused to meet with an editorial board to answer for them. (She did submit a statement that she expected them to publish. How brave!)
She's got a new ad saying "if you actually listen to Iowans," but passed extreme legislation most Iowans didn't want. She won't explain her fetal heartbeat bill vote except to say she's "pro-life".
Speaking of dodges, it's funny how she fully accepts Trump's endorsement but doesn't want the baggage that comes with his racism, bigotry, or mania. She complains about chaos and dysfunction in DC but won't admit Trump is the biggest source. https://iowastartingline.com/2020/05/22/ia-01-hinson-wavers-on-trump-ties-creating-her-own-brand/
@hinsonashley you're right, people are tired of political games.
That's why the last person they should vote for is you.
