First "Voters" Go On Record Tomorrow

Tomorrow evening we get our first look at how politically motivated citizens are turning out for the various candidates for president. "Politically motivated" in Iowa requires more of a commitment than elsewhere, there is no mail balloting or dropping by to cast a ballot, one has to attend and stay awhile.

Iowa's population is roughly 3.1 million and the average turnout for presidential year caucuses totals 120,000 "politically motivated" people. That "eyeballs" at about 4% of the state's small population. If the turnout is higher, say 180,00, it is supposed to be good for Trump ... we'll see.
