Former U.S. President Donald Trump holds a commanding lead over his Republican rivals in the state of Iowa, where the party's presidential nominating contest begins in January, according to an opinion poll released on Monday.
The Des Moines Register/NBC News/Mediacom survey of likely Iowa Republican caucusgoers shows Trump has the backing of 42%, with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis at 19% and U.S. Senator Tim Scott in third place with 9%.
Even so, J. Ann Selzer, the veteran Iowa pollster whose firm conducted the survey, said the race is not settled and might be "closer than it may first seem." Among Trump supporters, however, 66% said their vote was set, while 34% said they could be persuaded to change their minds.
