Democrats Worry As Reports Come in Of Iowa Voter Turnout Being “Horrible”
The Democrats are starting to worry as the results come in of voter turnout, and it is not looking good for them. Previously, Democrats predicted a record turnout for the caucus. But this wasn’t the case. What’s ironic is that the Democrats have touted a predicted record turnout as proof of a blue wave for November against Donald Trump. This would appear to not be the case.
And on top of this, only 1/3 of caucus goers were first timers for the Democrats, much less than 2016 when almost half had never caucused with the Dems before. Democrats hoped to break their record turnout ever which was in 2008. Back then, 240,000 people caucused in the Democratic primary in Iowa. Early predictions for this year are at most, 170,000.
