bedsitter23I think everyone knows that Iowa has a caucus.
Most states have a primary and that is what I grew up with. It's just like a general election.
However, Iowa is known for its caucus.
I think people know that it's different, but many don't know how a caucus works.
I think this article from KRCG- the ABC affiliate in Cedar Rapids helps explain.
See you in the next four years

The bulls, named Ole and Midnight, were fed a large meal and then led to separate pens.
On the ground in each pen was a tarp with pictures of the 2016 candidates for the presidency, one for Democrats and one for Republicans.
Ole wore a blue scarf around her neck and caucused with the Democrats. Midnight, in a red scarf, did the same with Republicans. After the gates closed, it was a waiting game to see which candidates they would select.
Ole picked Hillary Clinton to win, while Midnight took some time before settling on Donald Trump.
Pretty glamorous and the pundits were right, Clinton and Trump won.See you in the next four years
