Based on the first results of voter analysis, the decision desk projects that former President Donald Trump will win the Iowa caucuses.
He will take the lion’s share of the 40 delegates. This solidifies his place as the current front-runner for dominance.
Former Governor Haley and Governor Desantis are fighting for second place.
This is going to maybe last a while. It is a close race, as we see it in the numbers we are looking at. The former president overperformed in the rural parts of Iowa. But it has been overwhelming some of these numbers from the precincts that are already starting to come in. We were just talking. It happens quickly. They do it on pieces of paper. They finish it, and they hear everybody talk, and it’s done.
It is stunning. I was in touch with one at a time, and they listened to the speeches from all the representatives, then they voted, and it was over very quickly. Everything we are seeing is that the president in Iowa tonight has swept all age groups. strong with voters—voters who have lower levels of education—but strong all across the board. It compares to what we saw in the polling that we saw in the last few days on issues like a strong leader, a good economy, and all these things that are bearing fruit for him in Iowa.
