binary election season. former president trump with a big lead and the last bull before the caucuses. i will caucus runs a little different than most primary elections, is led by the state republican party, not the government. registered republicans gather at more than 1600 sites and can be fools, churches a neighbor's living room and representatives from each campaign they get out and make their pitches. at state, 40 delegates divided among candidates based on results. live in des moines to kickoff team coverage. hi, bill not good evening, this time tomorrow night i went from across the state will get ready to head out to cold temperatures go to the community and be in school gyms, libraries, chu churches, community centers with neighbors and make the pics for

president. let's take a look at the latest. this came out last night, highly respected des moines register pulled the last big one before caucus day, donald trump still the clear frontrunner at 48%. the big move, nikki haley at number two. strong second place at 20% followed by desantis and vivek ramaswamy. today donald trump held a rally in iowa where he reacted to the rankings. >> somebody points, i don't have the same vast wealth. >> in the meantime ron desantis and nikki haley finding out for second place for weeks. they been attacking each other incessantly. what desantis says haley is too liberal. haley says desantis is dragging in the polls and can't be biden head-to-head. desantis points out he's got more endorsement that south carolina haley is punching back. >> we have 74 endorsements from

current former state legislatures, she's got 14. i have way more than donald trump as well so she was governor for six years get most of the with me because they see me as representing values. >> let me tell you why that is, that's because i push the legislature instead of was felt that they had to start showing their votes on the record so taxpayers could see it. i created transparency so no, elected officials and the statehouse did not like me because i fought for the taxpayers, i didn't fight for them. >> what is so interesting and unique tomorrow night is there is no remote option, no mail an option. if you want your vote counted, you've got to get up to this weather and show up in person and that is how you make your voice heard. back to you. >> get inside, get warm, appreciate it. okay, let's talk about all of it, welcome to des moines where it is negative 11 degrees. thankfully we are inside all

cozy. hi, let's talk about old state of play, it seems like the race is already decided but iowa is full of surprises. >> margin for donald trump is significant and you look at the last handful of poles, trump is right around 50% just below, just above it seems like that could be obtainable to get to. has to be a concern for the desantis campaign is there are multiple blows slipping into third place. it possible his reservoir of support, intensity of support and ground game which is good here and has worked in the st state, maybe we will overcome pulling slippage but is put almost all of the eggs into the iowa basket and third-place finish would be catastrophic for his campaign so nikki haley wiki jobs wondering, is this number real?

is it a springboard into the hampshire next week? we'll talk about that later in the shop. >> we always ask, is it rea really -- to the polls really matter? in a state like iowa where not a lot of people will go out and caucus when you think about how many people are register republicans and how many live in the state. should the government look at the polls and worry too much? he says he's not worried because he believes his commitment caucus goers are going to come out. >> that's the great thing about these elections, the polls are meaningless, it all goes out the window tomorrow and i was show up and it's meaningless in a place like iowa where enthusiasm counts like times ten for your candidate especially if it's negative 11 degrees i don't want to walk out to the car let alone a schoolhouse or firehouse and you have to be tough. i agree with guy, when you look

at the polls, you see trump nearing 50% in the polls. that is extremely significant and i think it's interesting the trump campaign has taken nothing for granted here, they put everything into the first time we saw i think yesterday, he started to go after vivek ramaswamy. i think what it has to do with is he's interested, where the 50% comes in to play, he is trying to get over that -- >> siphon whatever that us. >> it's funny you can tell he is focused on this 50%, he's gone back to the history of republicans, how they performed, no republican has ever obtained 50% so i think that probably is white whale right now. >> he wants to win big and wanted to be done after the iowa caucuses. we will see if that happens. i want to play this town bite

people who will turn out and delete one huge to the general for the 20 general election rallies dwarfed biden and biden into winning by 7 million votes so i understand what they are trying to do and there is an element but it's hard to see and we were talking earlier, the energy here feels very chump to me and a lot of people are quiet about what they will go and do but based on anecdotal evidence thus far, it feels like this is trump country. >> based on evidence i've experienced on the trail, i've met a lot of trump supporters, huge fans but they feel, they don't care what happens in iva or new hampshire, they know he's going to get the nomination, they say why do i need to go caucus for him? he doesn't want to hear. >> you got to god to come do it.

with trump and i will. senator marco rubio through support behind trump today that's significant because rubio is choosing not to back the current governor of his home state of florida ron desantis and because former south carolina governor nikki haley act revealed when he ran for president in 2016. he's not security for labor. haley on the other hand scored endorsement of former maryland governor larry hogan, hogan stepped down from the board of no labels while some folks speculated he could launch a third-party run for the white house. >> unconvinced momentum is with nikki haley. i think that's a real possibility if she could potentially come in second place and i will move on to new hampshire, it's possible she conflict which put her in a better position to move into her home state of south carolina. >> iowa is extremely popular governor kim rattled campaigning with florida governor ron

desantis in this final push we will see if any of these last-minute endorsements or reynolds endorsement which was known about for some time now sway voters on caucus day. >> nice job keeping up with the freight train, thank you. fox news alert now. >> nikki haley is live right now in a dell, iowa. this is her last stop of the night, she had to cancel one of her events in dubuque, iowa today but she made it to ames and now she's in a dell. she is now in second place in the brand-new des moines register poll. we will see if she can surpass desantis tomorrow. >> they are great people and why we are doing what we are doing. thank you both, wherever you are. there you are, thank you. one more thing, there was

sadness that came out today, i know. high school is just down the road. when i was governor in south carolina, we had a shooting in the small town of townsville. we had a teenager who shot his mom and went to elementary school and opened fire. he shot little jake pull and that night i was in the hospital with jacob's parents and we were praying. they were praying he would pull through. i knew at that moment how bad off he was. jacob died two days later and he loved superheroes and he had a superhero funeral. what happened in perry, whenever

momentum like look, people are jumping on the bandwagon, war room for you as well, come on in support our team but probably not is my short answer, i do think it probably stings for desantis to have his state senator go with trump and nikki haley was a big endorser for rubio and he's going with trump and my guess, i have special insight but my guess is rubio is looking at the writing on the wall saying is likely going to be him from a better be on his good side and there we have it but the night before caucuses or data for rubio says i'm supporting trump. >> also followed rex, iowa state fair they showed up kind of like president trump walking around trying to put that into desantis face i think you're right, for us it's fun because it creates headlines. for the average voter, i don't think so. i've been talking to voters in iowa and i don't know they care kim rattled has endorsed desantis or chris endorsed nikki

haley or larry hogan for that matter. what matters is when they can bring a certain group of people the candidate doesn't already have and that hasn't happened yet. >> border czar good at making up their own mind and you're talking up politicians, it seems like they are coming onto the comet as it goes by. >> elected officials the same as the rest of us can only vote once and some of you think 74 endorsements, okay, you got 74 votes in south carolina, what else do you got that's how do you appeal to regular people like you and me, what are you saying about the economy and issues that matter? that's where desantis has suffered and nikki haley had an event earlier tonight, more journalists than it did voters and a lot of people are saying this is the woman that can do it, doctor take her on importing their present of i will go to social booking biden in the general. we kind of think, what does it matter? >> disgusting politicians are putting future favors on the line so coming up, obama inside

that is the key question keeping some democrats up at night. i do think they are worried large swaths of gen z will all of a sudden flip and vote for the republican particularly donald trump, they are worried they might say we like any of this, we are disillusioned, we are not voting that would make a big difference, a huge problem. >> in the last couple of elections, midterms and look at the referendums on the dobbs decision across the country, that's been motivated by gen z voters turned out. i always maintain this and it's important to the democratic side to understand, we like to be scared, we run better when we are scared and we don't want to be confident about anything, elections are usually polarized and will be close but i would like to draw one's attention to the new poll that came out today that gen z voter margin 27-point in joe biden's favor, it follows up on politics out of harvard a few weeks ago at the same margin

he won by 2020 around 30 points. there have been a slew of poles that have said trump is winning within one in the margin making tremendous gains amongst black voters. the 27-point is the accurate number, your turnout question will be what actually is important. >> within the pole he mentioned, they do head-to-head trump leading biden by two, desantis by three, nikki haley by eight so maybe the nurse the democrats love to feel a well earned what they should be. >> a great year if you love to be scared. but this is the problem you have a guy, they ran joe biden not is joe biden, nobody went to joe biden, people voted against donald trump must the problem when you're in the race you are in now where you have this
