Iowa Capital Dispatch: Iowa House Democrats on Monday elected Rep. Jennifer Konfrst, D-Windsor Heights, as the new minority leader. Konfrst, a public relations professor at Drake University, her alma mater, is the first woman to lead Iowa House Democrats. She was elected to the House in 2018 and she served as an assistant to the minority leader through her first two-year term. When her second term began this year, she became the minority whip, a second-in-command position to the minority leader.
