On Monday, hundreds of thousands of Iowa Democrats are expected to caucus for their preferred nominee for president. Many will end up with their second or third choices, as only candidates who meet the 15% threshold will have their caucus votes counted. It’s an odd process to those who have never participated, but supporters of the caucus system swear by it.
CNN and the Des Moines Register normally put out the “gold standard” poll ahead of the caucus that is supposed to be the most accurate in weighing support for each individual candidate. But its release was canceled at the last minute after reports of someone who claimed South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s name was not included in the list of preferences when he was called for the poll.
The voter was an Iowa City area man who says the Iowa Poll polltaker didn’t name Buttigieg when asked which candidate he preferred.

While most are taking it at face value, there are some who believe this was a ploy by CNN (and possibly the DNC) to subvert Senator Bernie Sanders’ campaign. He has been surging in recent weeks, including topping the previous CNN/DMR poll. If the results of this poll showed him with a strong lead, which many expected, could their decision to scrap it based on one complaint be based on an anti-Bernie bias?
Some believe this is the case.

The will be no more polls because they all show @BernieSanders crushing the rest of the field.https://t.co/LiqMSJvuMT— Webstir ??Leftist Lawyers for #Bernie2020 (@TheRealWebstir) February 2, 2020
A single Buttigieg supporter claims Buttigieg’s name wasn’t given as an option during a phone poll, and now CNN is refusing to release the poll results.
A cynic would have to be forgiven for wondering how big Bernie Sanders’ lead in the poll is. https://t.co/h9ja3WVRFd

Let me guess, this poll had #socialist @BernieSanders winning #Iowa again; so the @DMRegister, @CNN, & @MediacomCable pulled the plug on it? The @DNC fix, is in again. Monday should be interesting. ? #IowaPoll #DNCRigging #IowaCaucus #2020election #SocialismIsTyranny #IA01??#KAG https://t.co/uQeP2tzUgB

After trashing Bernie Sanders endlessly, WHY do you suppose CNN is scrapping the Iowa Poll?
Here, I'll help #ReleaseThePoll. Here's the most recent poll, and I can't IMAGINE why the Turner Industries CNN AT&T .001%er rich crew would want to HIDE this…(psst, Bernie hates greed) https://t.co/ySarB3QBd3

CNN has recently seemed to be reporting unfavorably about Sanders for several weeks. They released an article from information leaked by Senator Elizabeth Warren’s campaign that claimed Sanders said a woman couldn’t beat President Trump. Then, they ambushed him at the last debate, asserting that he was lying when he denied the claim.
Bernie Sanders supporters finally starting to realize CNN is fake news
A big win for Sanders in Iowa could turn this into a three-person race very quickly. Vice President Joe Biden is holding out for South Carolina to be his first big win following expected victories for Sanders in Iowa and Vermont. Meanwhile, billionaire Mike Bloomberg is banking (literally) on Super Tuesday a month after the Iowa caucus. He needs the race to stay close, though, as his real play is for the convention.
Michael Bloomberg isn’t just trying to buy voters. He’s signaling delegates.
Either CNN and the DNC were fortunate that this Buttigieg thing derailed their poll or they orchestrated it. Either way, their efforts to stall Bernie Sanders’ campaign seem to be backfiring. The more they hate on him, the higher his numbers go.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
