Decision 2024: Monday marks start of presidential primaries
The 2024 presidential primaries officially begin Monday. Voters in Iowa will make their voices heard in Monday’s Iowa Caucus. The presidential hopefuls were out in full force to make their final pitches.
Former President Donald Trump has a historic lead in the state — 48%. Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis are in a close battle for second.
The candidates still in the running made stops across the state, despite the blistering cold conditions. They’re hoping the cold won’t stop voters from caucusing.
Trump is urging his supporters to brave the conditions and get out to vote.
“So brave the weather and go out and save America, because that’s what you’re doing,” Trump said. “This is really about saving our country.”
The Today Show will have live team coverage on the Iowa Caucus Monday morning. Hallie Jackson will report on the final push from the nominees. Jacob Soboroff will talk to voters.
That’s coming up at 7 a.m. Monday, right after News10NBC Today.
