Republican presidential candidates are converging once again in Iowa, following a contentious debate and with the leadoff caucuses just a month away.
In a bid to make their campaign case, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy took the stage on Saturday in northwest Iowa – a rural and conservative part of the state. They were joined by U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra and his wife, Lynette, at Dordt University in Sioux Center.
The event, which saw hundreds of attendees including many students from the small Christian college, focused on the topics of faith, family, and politics.
As the pressure mounts for a standout performance in the January 15 contest that marks the start of the GOP nominating calendar, the three candidates made stops across Iowa on Friday.
Despite not being present at the event, former President Donald Trump currently leads the field in polls both in Iowa and nationwide among Republicans.
Prior to this gathering, DeSantis, Haley, and Ramaswamy appeared together in Iowa for the Family Leader's roundtable discussion before Thanksgiving. It was a notably friendly affair. Their next joint appearance is scheduled to take place at Drake University in Des Moines for a Republican debate just five days before the caucuses.
