At least six GOP presidential prospects are planning to visit Iowa this summer, forays advertised as promoting candidates and the state Republican organization. In reality, the trips are about building relationships and learning the political geography.
Haley, who is also the former governor of South Carolina, another early-voting state in the presidential calendar, plans to begin her trip in eastern Iowa on June 29 with first-term Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks. She’ll also headline a state GOP fundraiser in Dubuque.
Pompeo did endorse Nunn before the primary, a nod to their shared military experience, Pompeo aides said. On the GOP side, Scott’s return was not only timely. It reflected the dual aims of these early appearances, part introduction and part demonstration of support for the local party. Pence was planning a summer trip to Iowa, though the date was not yet confirmed, a senior aide to the former vice president said.
