Quiz time - name the Iowa caucus winners
Easy, eh?
Well, less than half of the Americans polled by Pew in the immediate aftermath of the vote could name both. Republicans were better able to name both than were Democrats at 59 to 44%. Awareness largely followed levels of political engagement, education and age.
The most amusing finding is that the success rate for those claiming to be following the campaign trail 'very closely' was 67%. Were I pollster, I would find it a struggle not to mock the other 33%. At length.
