Fox News
Former President Donald Trump has a more than 2-to-1 lead over his closest rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, in a new poll of likely Iowa GOP caucusgoers.
Scott came in third place with 9% support, while former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley and former Vice President Mike Pence tied for fourth at 6%. Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie garnered 5% support, and 4% of respondents said they would support tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.

While several indicators pointed toward Trump’s strength at this stage, J. Ann Selzer, president of Selzer & Co., the firm that conducted the poll, told the Des Moines Register the contest may be "closer than it may first seem," suggesting that much could change in the about five months until Caucus Day on January 15.
