The reason behind the both candidates’ numerous visit is the fact that Iowa is the first to vote and whoever wins it, can have a head start. Hillary Clinton is most likely would strive to grab those six votes. The reason is the state has voted the Democratic candidate in five of the last six elections.

Lot of people in Iowa thinks both of the candidates are going to be disastrous towards this nation. Bryan Branscomb, an IT Specialist, said “Honestly, I'm a little lost. I feel both would be a detriment to the country." Some Iowans would still vote for Bernie Sanders if they could. So now, only thing I could say that no one knows who will own the state of Iowa this November

Barber is running a statewide campaign on the cheap, basically relying on the tactics that have won many a race for him over the past 50 years.
