the iowa caucuses are the first set of votes officially for a candidate. caucus goers will gather this evening in schools, libraries and community centers across the state. at each of the 1,700 gop caucuses -- representatives from the presidential campaigns will have an opportunity to deliver speeches. then caucus goers cast ballots, usually on paper, which are reported to the state party. on the democratic side -- the process is a little more intricate. attendees at the almost 17-hundred caucuses must stand in groups representing each candidate. if supporters of a candidate don't meet a certain threshold of support set at the beginning of the evening, they would be forced to realign themselves with another candidate. only after candidates under the viability threshold are weeded out from each caucus, do the totals get reported to the iowa democratic party. jaime harrison: "when you look of people who participate in caucuses compared to primaries, it's night and day. it's a much smaller number of folks."." matt moore: "a lot of what happens after iowa depen

the night before the iowa caucuses the republican candidates held an iowa debate. ronald reagan decided to not show up for it. it was not just the last debate before iowa voted in 1980. it was the night before the caucuses. front-runner ronald reagan blew it off. on the following day ronald reagan stayed in california. he didn't show up in iowa. maybe he was just taking it for granted. he was the front-runner and expected to win. on the ground, in iowa, that year, something went wrong. something really specific went wrong. iowa public television went back to it recently. they did an autopsy of what happened there. a moment by moment reconstruction of what went so wrong and had such dramatic consequences for the country. on the ground, at the iowa caucuses in 1980. >> republican party of iowa reporting system was built on brand new computers technology designed to compile data phoned in from rural and urban corners of the iowa. >> we did it in an effort to get a fast response to the many people who wanted to know what happened in 2500 and 3500 different meetings or

a communications professor who knows her way around the iowa caucuses. back in 2008 she was the communications director for the democratic party in iowa. so again we can tell you fox is calling the race on the return side. ted cruz declared the winner. so it's always about turnout for candidates, but for trump and sanders who have seen massive momentum at their campaign events, this was really the moment of truth. could they harness all that support and translate it into votes. >> i think we're seeing the grass roots in action with rubio so close behind at 23%. trump flew in and flew out and did his thing. cruz and rubio spent their time on the ground. >> that's what iowans want. a lot of time on the ground. >> there's know doubt it gives any candidate a huge push here. iowa doesn't have a huge great record in picking the party. >> we always say there are three tickets out of iowa. we haven't heard much about the other candidates. there are a lot of them. but three tickets probably to new hampshire. >> i'm told we may hear from martin o'malley any moment.

let's start with the iowa caucuses. a. >>> today is the day, the day of the iowa caucuses. but that does not mean that the work is over for candidates. in fact, a lot of them have a packed schedule today. chris christie, for example, he starts at 7:30 this morning. they know that there are still people out there who are undecided. in fact, i spoke with a family who had been out to see eight different candidates and were planning to see their ninth, rand paul today, giving them just a little bit of time before the caucuses start at 7:00, both for the democrats and for the republicans. and we will have live reports for you starting at 4:00. for now, in des moines, iowa, i'm lauren mayk, nbc 10 news. >>> i'm matt delucia live at 30th street station. we're expecting to learn more information about the crash of amtrak train 188. we're expecting to see some 2,000 pages of documents, photo and transcripts related to the crash in may of last year that killed eight and injured more than 200 in the city's frankford neighborhood. w

we're just hours away from the iowa caucuses. tonight iowa is the first to decide who they think should be president of the united states we're just hours away from the iowa caucuses. tonight iowa is the first to decide who they think should be president of the united states tracie potts is in des moines "this is our time. this is the time for the men and women of caucuses. "...large turnout in most iowa counties...we win." "i hope you will stand up for me. i hope you will fight for me." hillary clinton and donald trump have slim leads in the latest des moines register poll "we have to win this election, we have to win in iowa." but that same poll shows nearly 1 in 10 iowans are like cassandra: "i'm kind of an undecided have favorites: "i'm learning toward marco rubio." but could still change their minds... today! karen tentner's a republican candidate we're not interested in is not included." vicky daniel interrupted her florida vacation to fly home for tonight's caucuses. "it's important. i wanna stand up for my candidate." that

one of the biggest questions about the iowa caucuses is why iowa? state's population is obviously smaller than the city of los angeles but being first it carries an outsized influence in presidential politics. mary snow is here with a look at the iowa caucuses and how they work. mary. >> quirky is a word you've used to describe the iowa caucuses. democrats and republicans have their own systems. republicans have a secret ballot and the process for democrats is more physical, why iowa has a prominent role? you have to go back more than four decades. yes, it's known that iowa is the first in the nation to weigh in on the presidential race but less well-known are the quirks behind its caucus system. starting why it became such a draw for presidential hopefuls. in 1972 it was only by chance that democrats in iowa scheduled their caucus earlier than everyone else. >> good morning how are you? >> 1976, republicans in the state joined them. >> i'm running for president. >> jimmy carter did well that year in iowa and went on to win the white house, iowa cem

you're wondering this is new york times today. [ indistinguishable ] the new a week ago were the iowa caucuses. talk about your poll in regards to the caucuses and what happened. >> well, i looked up those edamology of the word, caucus. it basically mean, impossible to know. while i've known that intellectually for a long time it all sort of played out. if you look at the caucus on paper you would say, well, there no way you could accurately poll that. it's a very small group of people. you can change your mind. you can register to vote on caucus day. you can be 17 on caucus day, and, oh, at our best we can accurately predict what people walk into the room intending to do, but things happen. so my conclusion was that it was donald trump to win. >> okay. >> oh, i'm sorry, donald trump >> okay, yes, he did. >> and you know. that we kind of knew that the turnout was big on the democratic side, a very close race. and perhaps even a standard victory. that we saw coming. the extent with donald trump had not put a ground in place. in iowa we like a ground game, and you need to get people to show up.

the iowa caucuses are tonight. >> this is a key part of the process. iowa is the first state to hold caucuses and it's been used as a measuring stick of sorts for presidential campaigns during the primary season. yesterday's final full day of campaigning was very busy to say the least. more than a dozen candidates on both sides held nearly 40 events across iowa just to getç an ed going into the caucusing tonight. and the republican side, many analysts say a high turnout will favor donald trump. a low turnout and ted cruz and marco rubio could benefit. yesterday, the gop hopefuls delivered their final pitches to iowa voters. here's a listen. >> 16 years and you haven't picked a winner. please pick a winner this time. okay? i'm going to win. >> we've been burned over and over and over again. the stakes are too high. we cannot be burned again. >> this is not about making a point. it's about making a difference. this election has to be about winning the future. i know we will. >> democrats bernie sanders and hillary clinton highlighted the contrast between
