Centrists: It's not all Republicans that support extremist candidates, there's still lots of non-extremists in the party!

Iowa caucus: Trump 51.0% DeSantis 21.2% Haley 19.1% Ramaswamy 7.7%

Leaving 1.0% or less that don't support an extremist candidate

Something like 14% of Iowan voters actually turned out. So 51% of that. It's still not ideal of course 🤷

I don't think the Iowa caucuses are like normal voting. It's more like an event:

I don't think a single person under 40 was in that room, so these numbers and results track.
