Hawkeyes on the Prize
Iowa usually gets it right. The Hawkeye State almost always votes for the winning presidential candidate.

Iowa’s Des Moines Register is often on the money, too. For example, when many other polls predicted Iowa would select Mitt Romney in 2012 over Barack Obama, the Register correctly went the other way.
Up to this point, polls for the 2020 Iowa race have shown a virtual tie. But the Des Moines Register now reports:
Republican President Donald Trump has taken over the lead in Iowa as Democratic former Vice President Joe Biden has faded, a new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll shows just days before Election Day.
The president now leads by 7 percentage points over Biden, 48% to 41%. Three percent say they will vote for someone else, 2% aren't sure and 5% don't want to say for whom they will vote.

UPDATE. Whoa:
This newspaper has not supported a Republican for president since 1972. But we believe President Trump, for all his faults, is the better choice this year.
