Did Casey DeSantis Just Try To Steal Iowa’s Election?

Casey DeSantis, the wife of Governor Ron DeSantis, caused a significant stir during a recent appearance on Fox News.

Casey, during a recent interview with Fox News, stated, “We’re asking all of these moms and grandmoms to come from wherever it might be — North Carolina, South Carolina — and descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus.”

She continued, “You do not have to be a resident of Iowa to be able to participate in the caucus,”

In response to her statement, the Iowa Caucus posted, “You do not have to be a resident of Iowa to be able to participate in the caucus.”

Per The Washington Examiner:

Casey DeSantis, the wife of Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), briefly caused confusion on Friday when she appeared to call for supporters of her husband across the country to descend on Iowa and seemingly take part in the Iowa caucuses in January.

The first lady of Florida initially told Fox News Host Martha Maccallum that people did not need to be residents of Iowa to participate in the caucuses.

“We’re asking all of these moms and grandmoms to come from wherever it might be — North Carolina, South Carolina — and descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus because you do not have to be a resident of Iowa to be able to participate in the caucus,” Casey DeSantis said. “So moms and grandmoms are going to be able to come and be a part and let their voice be heard in support of Ron DeSantis.”

Her comments seemingly prompted a reminder from the Iowa Republican Party that out-of-state residents could not participate.

Per Yahoo News:

The Republican Party of Iowa swiftly sent out a reminder after Florida first lady Casey DeSantis called for out-of-state supporters of her husband Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign to participate in the Iowa caucuses.

Casey DeSantis took to Fox News with her husband on Friday where she boasted of a “huge coalition” of mothers and grandmothers – “Mamas for DeSantis” – before making her on-air plea.

“We’re asking all of these moms and grandmoms to come, from wherever it might be – North Carolina, South Carolina – and to descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus because you do not have to be a resident of Iowa to be able to participate in the caucus,” she claimed.
