The Midwestern Iowa caucus will be held on the 15th, the first battle for the Republican nomination for the U.S. presidential election in November. As the state and other states are being hit by record-breaking cold waves that drop to -20 degrees Celsius, each candidate held a rally with voters on the 14th to appeal for their support. Until recently, former President Trump (77) had maintained a large lead in opinion polls.

Trump is leading the race with a lead of more than 30 points over the second-placed former United Nations Ambassador Haley, 51. The party appears to be hoping to win the first race by a large margin in order to gain an advantage in the early states that will hold caucuses and primaries after Iowa.
The local weather forecast says that if you go outside, you will experience "extremely cold temperatures that could mean life or death."

At party caucus meetings, party members gather in each of the more than 1,600 districts, and votes are held after discussions among supporters of each candidate. Depending on the state's overall vote share, each candidate will receive delegates, who will have the right to vote to elect a candidate at the party's national convention in July. There are 2,429 delegates across the United States, who are allocated to each state based on population and party affiliation. There are 40 delegates in Iowa, and the outcome of the first round is important because it will determine the outcome of future primaries and caucuses.
Mr. Trump has positioned this presidential election as a "last battle" against the Democratic Party and the left, and has vowed to resume construction of a "border wall," impose flat tariffs of more than 10% on imported goods, and promote the development of oil and natural gas. has been declared as a pledge.
Ms. Haley, who advocates generational change, has high hopes among the moderate factions within the party as a candidate to challenge Mr. Trump, and rose to second place in a recent local newspaper poll. There is momentum to threaten Mr. Trump in the second primary in the eastern state of New Hampshire on the 23rd, and there are speculations that he will put up a good fight in Iowa and maintain a ``number one'' mood.
