Political Race Heats Up Despite Adverse Weather Conditions

News from the 2024 campaign circuit: Republican candidates are preparing for a full day of engagements in Iowa, braving the cold and heavy snow that led to the cancellation of some events on Friday. The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning for Des Moines, Iowa, and its surrounding areas until 6 p.m. CT Saturday. To adapt to the weather, former President Donald Trump has shifted many of his weekend events to virtual rallies. Meanwhile, caucus attendees confined at home can expect over $2.6 million in GOP TV advertisements through Jan. 15, as per AdImpact reports. The super PAC affiliated with former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley is the top spender, closely followed by a super PAC associated with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Although businessman Vivek Ramaswamy has been less visible on TV, he leads in the number of events held in Iowa, with more scheduled for today.
