Iowa Senate Democrats elect new leader

Iowa Senate Democrats have a new leader.  They voted Janet Peterson of Des Moines into the top leadership spot Sunday after ousting former minority leader Rob Hogg of Cedar Rapids.  Hogg had only been in the position for less than a year as he elected after last year's election.  Peterson makes history as she's the first woman to be chosen as Senate Democratic Leader and she'll lead a caucus of 20 lawmakers.
