Beau Klaver, 23, heads to the Iowa House from the family farm

When the Iowa House convenes in January, its youngest member will be a farmer from Kamrar who plants cover crops with drones. Beau Klaver, a Republican, won the open Iowa House District 55 seat on Nov. 3, beating Democrat Cynthia Oppedal Paschen. Unofficial results showed Klaver with 8,361 votes, about 64.7%, to Paschen’s 4,552, about 35.2%, the Hampton Chronicle reported.

With five minutes left in its Iowa high school football state quarterfinal game at No. 2 Van Meter, Roland-Story was back on its heels. The Norsemen held a comfortable two-touchdown lead over the Bulldogs, 28-14, but Van Meter was driving. After Roland-Story raced to a 21-0 first-half lead, Van Meter settled in and gradually shifted the game's momentum. Van Meter had the ball on the Roland-Story 8-yard line facing third-and-5 in the final minutes of the game. If the Bulldogs could find the end zone, they would make it a one-score game with plenty of time to get the ball back for a potential tying or go-ahead drive.
