With the countdown on, DeSantis supporters, including Reps.

During the past week, Roy engaged in nine meet-and-greets and conducted 10 interviews, Reynolds joined the Florida governor for two meet-and-greets and two interviews of her own, Stitt attended four meet-and-greets and four interviews, Massie joined DeSantis for three meet-and-greets, and Deace delivered a passionate pro-DeSantis speech at a town hall event.
In a captivating video capturing their time in Iowa, Stitt appeals to voters, saying, “We need someone who can tackle the border, election integrity, and removing DEI from our classrooms and higher education. Governor DeSantis is the one who can get the job done.”
“Florida is now arguably the reddest state in the United States of America,” Deace emphasizes. “And he accomplished that in just one term.”
Roy urges Iowa voters to “elect this man so that our children can look up to our president and be inspired to follow a strong leader.”
Reynolds reinforces this message, stating, “Ron DeSantis is the person who can turn this country around and undo the chaos we’ve witnessed under the Biden administration.”
“He has delivered on 100% of his promises,” adds the Iowa governor.
The significant presence of DeSantis supporters on the campaign trail underscores the critical importance of Iowa to DeSantis and his 2024 rivals. DeSantis has staked his candidacy on a strong performance in the Hawkeye State, opening two headquarters and relocating staff to focus on Iowa. His efforts have paid off, with his numbers rising from 16% in October to 19% in December, following the coveted endorsement from Reynolds.
However, former President Donald Trump has also experienced a surge in popularity, increasing his poll numbers from 43% to 51% in December.
Experts caution against relying too heavily on polling, as the caucuses have a history of producing unexpected results. The latest poll reveals that nearly half of likely Republican caucusgoers, 46%, are open to being swayed to support another candidate.
