Former President Donald Trump has won the Iowa caucuses, CNN, the Associated Press, and Fox News have projected.
The Associated Press reported that Trump has “far more than half” of the votes counted as of 8:31 p.m. EST. Results from eight Iowa counties are in.
Trump defeated Republican challengers former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy in the Iowa caucuses held Monday, per CNN projections.
The news comes as Iowans braved sub-freezing temperatures to vote in the caucuses.
