→Iowa
It's Trump all the way down in Iowa. With 99 percent of the vote counted, its Trump 51% (20 delegates), DeSantis 21% (8 delegates), Haley 19% (7 delegates), and Ramaswamy 8% (3 delegates), according to RCP. Biden has a net favorable rating of -17 while Trump has -15. When the winners are this unpopular, there's something wrong with the election system. Perhaps a nonpartisan primary with the top two candidates going on to the general election would help.

It could be worse. William Lai, Taiwan's newly elected president, is also super-unpopular. [https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2024-taiwan-election/ He got only 40 percent of the vote in Saturday's election]. Fortunately the Chinese military is too corrupt to do anything about it.
