DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds has launched her campaign for a second full term at a rally in Des Moines, touting her conservative agenda of cutting taxes, personal freedom from mandates and school choice.

The Republican governor made the announcement Wednesday night at a rally in Des Moines. Reynolds' announcement comes about a week after she gave the GOP response to President Joe Biden's State of the Union address.

Reynolds will likely face Democrat Deidre DeJear in the November general election. A Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll published March 5 shows Reynolds leading DeJear among likely voters, 51% to 43%.
