The Iowa caucus is a tremendous part of the presidential journey. There were some hiccups in the data recorded but right now, former mayor of South Bend Indiana, Pete Buttigieg came out on top of the 62% of precincts that have reported. He addresses this in his ‘semi victory’ speech on February 4th. Pete Buttigieg attended Harvard and then was elected mayor of South Bend, Indiana. He took an unpaid leave of absence to serve in the armed forces in Afghanistan, then coming back and winning 80% of the mayoral vote to be elected again. He later announced his run for presidency in April 2019. In his speech after the Iowa caucus Pete implements a lot of intricate strategies to get Americans listening to vote for him. One strategic method he adds to his speech was not in the speech itself. If you look behind him he purposely places a very diverse group of people to get a diverse group of voters effectively showing his diverse group of voters.
