    While Iowa is heartland geographically it is a lot different culturally than say a Kansas, Oklahoma, or Nebraska. Iowa (like Illinois and Wisconsin, Minnesota) has a stronger history of progressive (sometimes populist) politics. So this doesn’t really surprise me all that much.Report

    Very busy today – but a unanimous decision? Interesting, no matter what state it is.Report

    Mark, if one of the commenters at Volokh is correct, unanimous decisions in Iowa are typical. I’m about halfway through the opinion.Report
