Trump’s Grip Put To Test In Ice-Cold Iowa Caucuses

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Voting is set to begin Monday night in icy Iowa as former President Donald Trump eyes a resounding victory. The Iowa caucuses begin at 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. They are the opening contest in the months-long Republican presidential primary process. Polls suggest Trump enters the day with a massive lead in Iowa. His onetime chief rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, is fighting for second place in what could make or break his campaign. Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, the only woman in the race, stands in DeSantis’ way.
