Iowa might be the most important state when it comes to the Presidential elections in America. And, this election looks like it’s going to be one of the most interesting in the last 20 years.
The elephant in the room? Donald Trump. How will Iowa vote?
Just like in all U.S. States, there are definitely some hard-core Trump supporters within Iowa’s borders.
Like Orange City, for instance. This republican stronghold a short drive north of Sioux City on Route 60 is 85% Republican. If there is a large group of Trump supporters, it’s in places like this.
However, here are the 10 places least likely to vote for Donald Trump in Iowa:
- Iowa City
- Coralville
- North Liberty
- Clinton
- De Witt
- Waterloo
- Cedar Falls
- Burlington
- Cedar Rapids
- Marion
