Talk:Iowa caucuses

straw poll held at caucus?

This is just baffling. Ford did narrowly beat Reagan in the caucus, but I've never heard of a straw poll being held simultaneously with a caucus. Besides, the '76 primary was a long and gruelling contest; it seems a little odd to blame Reagan's eventual defeat on such an early event. However, I think I'll wait a bit and see if anyone can explain this before I do any alterations. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] [[User talk:{{{1}}}|(talk)]]
