No, the various Iowa motherships were in business to steal US congressional district seats [there are four congressional districts in Iowa].
They didn't do too badly - out of three contested seats, they stole one [CD 3], and almost stole a second one [CD 2].
You might remember Pelosi causing a kerfluffle over Mariannette Miller-Meeks' 6-vote win in the 2nd Iowa CD.
They were trying to lock in their steal.

This is very interesting, thanks.
Axne would not have won if it had not been for the Libertarian in the race and what a dull, loser candidate David Young was.
