Iowa caucus results: Trump wins, DeSantis edges Haley for second place
On Monday Eastern Time, former US President Trump won the Iowa caucuses.
Typically, attendees of political victory parties gather early to watch the results come in and erupt in cheers when a candidate wins. But the call declaring Trump the winner of the Iowa caucuses came so early that the former president had not yet arrived, nor had his invited guests. So the round cocktail table, covered with a black tablecloth, was empty.
Donald Trump wins Iowa caucuses, Haley and DeSantis battle for second place.
