In live in Iowa and the spirit here, the ground game, reminds me of the Obama campaigns which I experienced in Ohio.

This is the same pollster that did not know what R and D stands for on the poll data! She was on YouTube a couple hours ago. I couldn’t believe my ears!!!! This is bogus.

Go IOWA!!!! We 60 plus white women in Iowa are sick and tired of having our rights stripped away by old white guys!!! In fact we’re sick of our trump bootlicking female governor too- we’re gonna vote her out next chance we get too!!

I am a republican that has voted democrat for the last 2 elections and I will continue to vote democrat until the GOP stops acting like psychos.

I’ve lived in Iowa all my life. IOWA SHOULD BE CONSIDERED PURPLE. Granted it weighs more to red. But Iowa did vote for Obama both times. I’ve been surprised & disappointed that she has NEVER come her since she became the presidential candidate. I think yesterday the Des Moines Register said Biden was down by 18. So this is HUGE!!

[HerAeolianHarp]

Good news, but please spell her name correctly.

[MikeTodd-ez]

As a Iowan I couldn't be more happier.

If Iowa keeps turning out, Iowa will go blue like it did in both 2008 and 2012.

FORGET THE POLLS, THEY DO NOT VOTE - YOU DO. VOTE BLUE UP AND DOWN THE TICKET PEOPLE - BE A PART OF CHANGE, SAY YOU WERE THERE WHEN IT WAS NEEDED - VOTE BLUE

"If you elect a serial liar and conman, a narcissist, bully, wannabe mobster, with the vocabulary of an emotionally insecure 9-year-old, you can’t really be shocked at how it turned out, can you?"

[jamesrodriquez]

Do not, I repeat DO NOT, allow polling to keep you from voting on Tuesday, if you haven't already voted early! It isn't over until it's over and the voting isn't over until Tuesday. Get out and do your civic duty, vote for the candidate of your choice!

[joannamonique]

Just voted ealier today. One of the proudest moments of my life.

Lets 💙🇺🇸💙

Let's go, KAMALA💯

That this race and Election is so close between Kamala Harris VS Donald tRUMP and a 50/50 coin toss makes me anxious, nervous, nauseous and want to puke.

Get out and vote people! Choose decency 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

It's one poll out of quite a few. I looked at 270's polling site. It's the only poll that is ahead for Democrats in Iowa and the margin of error is large. Too late in the game for any newer polls to see if that is a trend. Still, better then nothing.
