Des Moines Register pulls Iowa Poll from publication

February 2, 2020 at 4:33AM

The Des Moines Register, CNN and its polling partner have decided not to release the final installment of its presidential preference poll, fearing its results may have been compromised. Carol Hunter, Register executive editor, posted the announcement Saturday night at the same time the results of the highly anticipated survey were supposed to be released. Hunter said that one of the poll respondents reported concerns earlier in the day, which raised questions about the poll's integrity. "It appears a candidate's name was omitted in at least one interview in which the respondent was asked to name their preferred candidate," Hunter wrote in an article posted on the Register's website.
