A significant factor in candidates dropping out during odd-numbered years was the GOP's Iowa Straw Poll. An expensive event, it drove out candidates like Pawlenty (2011) and Lamar! (1999). The Democrats, to their credit, haven't encouraged straw polls since the 1980s. — PolitiTweet.org

On average, about 1 out of every 4 candidates have dropped out before the Iowa caucuses. https://t.co/eVpT6BqFGK https://t.co/S69wBrKcgm

@nyc118 @thegarance As a New York resident, I get scared by garbage disposals whenever I encounter them. So give AOC a break on this one. — PolitiTweet.org

The aggressively pro-Trump, right-wing slant of Sinclair TV stations is well known. Now as the purchaser of Fox Sports Networks, Sinclair's cheap-skate approach to TV could undermine the quality and availability of local baseball coverage. https://t.co/DOr6vSHlrS — PolitiTweet.org
