Gov. Ron DeSantis is betting big on Iowa in a gamble to close the polling gap between him and 2024 Republican primary front-runner former President Donald Trump.
Nationally, DeSantis's share of the Republican primary vote has decreased from an average of 31% in January to 12.5% this week, according to RealClearPolitics. But while the governor is now in third place in New Hampshire behind Trump and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley with 10% support, he is in a more comfortable second in Iowa with 16% of the vote. Trump, however, retains 49% support in the Hawkeye State.
But 2024 is not a typical primary election cycle because of Trump, a popular former president running for reelection whose campaign and allies have invested millions of dollars undercutting DeSantis. But for Ronald Reagan biographer Craig Shirley,"drastic measures," including DeSantis's Iowa strategy, tend to have the"smell of doom around them," though McCain defied exceptions with his New Hampshire decision in 2008.
