On Friday at an LGBTQ forum in Cedar Rapids, Buttigieg framed his experience as a gay man as an advantage. During the forum, Warren earned a standing ovation for reading the names of trans people confirmed killed in 2019. Klobuchar also gained praise from the crowd for emphasizing stricter gun control after meeting and hugging Pulse nightclub survivor Brandon Wolf.
The age group most likely to disregard the notion of a gay nominee was voters 65 and older, people like John Sauer, a retired school superintendent from the Cedar Rapids area. By 2015, not only did 81 percent of likely Democratic caucus participants support gay marriage, so did 26 percent of Republican caucus goers, the Iowa Poll showed.
