How do likely Iowa Democratic caucusgoers describe themselves?

Des Moines Register

JoAnn Patrick has been a staunch Democrat since she assisted in Harry Truman’s 1948 reelection campaign as a high schooler. She has cast a ballot in all 17 presidential contests since, and she never misses the Iowa caucuses.

Although she isn’t making phone calls or placing yard signs for campaigns anymore, the 88-year-old Carson resident said the 2020 election has gotten her more “fired up” than any in recent memory.

“I can’t understand why good people are supporting him,” the poll respondent said of President Donald Trump.

But as Patrick prepares to participate in this year’s caucuses, she said she has a positive outlook on the future. Part of it’s because she believes in the “nature of the people in our country,” she said.
