Iowa GOP selects Boone for August 8 straw poll (video)

200px-Republicanlogo.svgBOONE, IOWA – The Iowa Republican Party announced Thursday that the Iowa Straw Poll will be held at the Central Iowa Expo in Boone for the first time since it started in 1979.

“Iowa’s agricultural background has always captured the national imagination, and we feel the Central Iowa Expo will help us showcase this heritage,” said Chairman Jeff Kaufmann. “This venue also allows us to keep ticket prices lower, ensuring families from around Iowa can afford to participate in this one-of-a-kind event.”

It is not yet known which GOP presidential candidates will participate. Both of the last two GOP nominees decided not participate in Iowa Straw Poll in the cycle in which they were nominated. Those events were held at the Iowa State University campus.
