“For those of you who still care, what exactly is the Iowa straw poll? [on screen: a
political science prof. explaining that GOP candidates tend to pay the $35 ticket
fee for voters in hopes they will come out and support them].
So, it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union,
where rich candidates pay $35 for your vote. Or, as the Republicans call it,
‘Our vision for the future.’”
