(Des Moines, IA) — Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis plans to take a bus tour of Iowa later this week. The Florida governor will head to Des Moines this coming Thursday. From there, his tour bus funded by his super PAC Never Back Down will meet potential voters in Chariton, Osceola, and Oskaloosa Thursday and Friday before taking part in Friday’s Iowa GOP Lincoln Dinner. DeSantis has visited Iowa just three times since he formally announced his presidential candidacy and experts say he has work to do to catch Iowa front-runner Donald Trump.
