The Iowa caucuses are scheduled for Feb. 3, 2020. Earlier this month, the Register and CNN announced a partnership to bring readers and viewers a series of Iowa Polls over the next 13 months.

The Register and CNN have joint control over deciding poll questions, when results are released and related content. The new partnership is also in collaboration with Mediacom, the largest cable company in Iowa and the nation’s fifth-largest cable company based on video customers.
