Trump returns to Iowa

Trump returns to Iowa

Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump will be making a stop in eastern Iowa.

Trump, who has been leading in polls nationally, will be in Cedar Rapids on Dec. 19.  The visit comes four days after the last Republican presidential debate of 2015 held in Las Vegas.

Trump has mostly spent times in western or central Iowa, with his stops in eastern Iowa mostly held in Davenport. The business mogul has made about 20 visits to Iowa in the past year.

Recently, Trump slipped in the latest Iowa poll released by the *Des Moines Register*/Bloomberg Politics on Sunday.

Cruz led Iowa with being the first choice of 31 percent of Republican likely caucus-goers. He surpassed Trump, who was the first choice of 21 percent of Republican likely caucus-goers. Carson followed with 13 percent and Rubio with 10 percent.

With 400 Republican likely caucus-goers surveyed, there is a margin of error of plus or minus 4.9 percentage points.

The details of Trump’s stop are:
