Here is the signed pledge Castro’s campaign sent to the @iowademocrats where Secretary Castro pledged “to support Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucus status on the presidential nominating calendar.” https://t.co/lHTvDIZ9FB — PolitiTweet.org

.@troymprice, chair of the @iowademocrats, says the comment is “surprising” given Castro signed the party’s “pledge to keep Iowa first.” Price says the party received the pledge - “which talked about the importance of grassroots organizing in the caucuses” - on October 10. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ChairmanBuckley, NH Democratic Party chair, responds to Castro’s comments with this statement to CNN: “I can imagine he is frustrated but blaming his campaign’s challenges on the voters of Iowa and New Hampshire is a bit much.” Castro recently shuttered his NH campaign. — PolitiTweet.org

Because Iowa and New Hampshire are “demographically... not reflective of the United States as a whole,” Julian Castro says it’s time to rethink IA & NH going first in the nomination process. “I don’t believe that forever we should married to IA and NH going first,” he concludes. — PolitiTweet.org

I asked Buttigieg about male privilege last wknd. Buttigieg: “Sexism is a real force in politics right now. ... I think it would be naive for me to say that that hasn’t played some role to the disadvantage of female candidates and to the advantage of male candidates” like him. — PolitiTweet.org

Today’s LSU v Alabama game is President Donald Trump’s third sporting event in as many weeks. Fair to say the crowd here in Tuscaloosa is a lot friendlier. https://t.co/YCfZV8xfWi — PolitiTweet.org

Bullock seizes on the Steyer story, saying, "First he buys his way onto the debate stage and now Tom Steyer’s trying to buy endorsements." Steyer, Bullock argues, "proves why it’s so important to get Big Money out of our elections." Here is the story: https://t.co/Tx6hwY6W2n — PolitiTweet.org
