POLL: Two-Thirds Of Iowa Caucus Voters Believe Biden Didn't Win Legitimately In 2020

On Monday evening, Iowans packed into crowded gyms, private homes, and various other venues to participate in the highly anticipated Iowa Caucus, the first 2024 presidential contest of the year. Prior to entering the caucus, however, a number of voters were asked their thoughts on American politics via entrance polls, which led to two-thirds of those polled telling pollsters that they did not believe that President Biden was legitimately elected in 2020.

According to a CNN entrance poll, 66 percent of respondents said that Biden did not legitimately win the presidential election against Donald Trump, while 30 percent believed that it was a legitimate victory. Amongst Trump voters, 69 percent said Biden was not elected legitimately, while 11 percent said he was. In contrast, only five percent of Nikki Haley's voters said Biden was not legitimately elected, while 53 percent said he was.

CNN also asked voters who they voted for in the caucus, with 30 percent of 17 to 29-year-olds going for DeSantis, 25 percent supporting Haley, 22 percent supporting Trump, and 21 percent supporting Ramaswamy. Amongst 30 to 44-year-olds, Trump won 42 percent support compared to DeSantis' 29 percent, Haley's 13 percent, and Ramaswamy's 15 percent. Amongst those aged 45 to 64, Trump won 54 percent, DeSantis won 21 percent, Haley won 17 percent, and Ramaswamy won only six percent. Lastly, among Iowa caucus voters over 65, Trump won 58 percent compared to Haley's 21 percent, DeSantis' 16 percent, and Ramaswamy's four percent.

While DeSantis was able to defeat Trump in one age group, that wasn't enough to dethrone the leading Republican presidential candidate. With all caucusgoers counted, Trump secured 51 percent of the vote, while Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) came in second with 21.2 percent, and former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) came in third with 19.1 percent. Ramaswamy was only able to win 7.7 percent support, leading to him announcing the end of his campaign later in the night. Trump's victory was most likely helped by the fact that 

The poll had 1,628 total respondents, and amongst Trump voters, the most important policy issue was immigration at 64 percent, followed by the economy at 52 percent, foreign policy at 36 percent, and abortion at 25 percent. Interestingly, amongst Haley voters, foreign policy ranked as their number one concern, with 45 percent ranking it as their top concern. 

Iowa made its voice heard on Monday evening, and Trump will take the momentum that he gained from his historic victory to take on President Biden in the general election this November to ensure that America First policies return to the White House.
