By the time Donald Trump returns to Iowa, the Republican ex-president will have drawn more than 10,000 people to his events in the state in less than a month
FILE - Supporters wait to enter a former President Donald Trump commit to caucus rally, Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023, in Waterloo, Iowa. By the time he returns Monday, Oct. 16, to Iowa, Trump will have drawn more than 10,000 people to his events here in less than a month. There's no guarantee his crowds will translate to support in the state's Jan. 15 caucuses that will launch the 2024 nominating cycle.
A traditional measure of campaign organization in Iowa is the caucus pledge card. People who attend Trump's events are asked to sign a commitment that they will attend the caucuses and support him, providing their contact information so the campaign can inquire about them volunteering and finding others to attend.
“I can promise you there is no backlog," said Alex Latcham, a senior Trump adviser and early-state coordinator. “You have a very big, powerful election coming up. It's called a caucus here,” Trump told about 2,500 inside a hotel ballroom. “And you have to get out at 7 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 15. We're asking you to commit to caucus and bring five or seven or 10 maybe, as many as you can, because we have to win big."Rick and Nancy Anderson, of Ottumwa, are devout Trump fans, particularly wed to his ideas on energy and maximizing U.S. oil production.Florida Gov.
