1:01Now PlayingA video shared first with MS NOW shows Rep. Zach Nunn, R-Iowa, appearing to swat at a Democratic tracker’s phone during a brief confrontation. Trackers — staffers paid by opposing parties to follow lawmakers’ every move — have become a routine part of life on the campaign trail and Capitol Hill.
In a statement to MS NOW, Nunn wrote, “This wasn’t my finest moment, I shouldn’t have responded this way, and I set a bad example.”
