Hinson, who defeated a Democratic incumbent in 2020, secured a third term in the US House with Tuesday night’s victory. Hinson, who was endorsed by Trump earlier this year, told a crowd of supporters in Cedar Rapids she looks forward to working with a Trump White House. Jodi Puffett of Delhi, the independent candidate who ran against Hinson, got about one percent of the vote.
