Trump rages at Iowa poll: ‘No President has done more for FARMERS’

Former President Trump raged in a post online after a shocking Iowa poll found Vice President Harris leading in the state.

“No President has done more for FARMERS, and the Great State of Iowa, than Donald J. Trump,” he shared Sunday morning to his Truth Social site. “In fact, it’s not even close!”

A poll released Saturday by the Des Moines Register/Medicom found Harris outpacing Trump by 3 points. The vice president earns 47 percent support to the former president’s 44 percent among Iowa’s likely voters.

“All polls, except for one heavily skewed toward the Democrats by a Trump hater who called it totally wrong the last time, have me up, BY A LOT,” Trump said in his post. “I LOVE THE FARMERS, AND THEY LOVE ME.”

The result was inside the survey’s margin of error, but pollster J. Ann Selzer said no one could see this coming, but Harris has “leaped into a leading position."

Trump won Iowa in both 2016 and 2020, by 9 points and 8 points, respectively, but Selzer said Harris’s support is coming from older women voters. The last time a Democratic nominee won Iowa was former President Obama in 2012.

Both campaigns have spent considerable time in the seven battleground states but neither has campaigned in Iowa after the conclusion of the primaries.

While the recent poll with Harris up came as a shock, another survey in Iowa has Trump leading. An Emerson College Polling/RealClearDefense poll found Trump leading by 10 points.

“THE JUST OUT EMERSON POLL HAS ME UP 10 POINTS IN IOWA. THANK YOU!” Trump’s post said.

With just days left until Election Day, both Harris and Trump are sharing their last-minute messages with voters. According to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ, Harris and Trump are locked in a dead tie, each with 48.3 percent nationally.
