Iowa

How
Does the Iowa Caucus Work?
Caucuses demand not only the attention of the nation;
attendees need to be cognizant of caucus procedure.

and vote their preference. For Democrats, though,
the mechanics of selecting a nominee are not for the
mathematically challenged. For an explanation, the
head chef of Iowa Public Television's Political Kitchen,
Bob Singer, utilizes commodities to illustrate tricky
caucus math.
