The first results of the US presidential
The results in Iowa show a clear parallel to what is happening in the two US parties. In
both political parties, in fact, the favorite candidates were put in
difficulty and the odds, derived from surveys, they have been subverted.
Even
the United States occurs, then, the phenomenon of poor reliability of
the data provided by research institutes, which have become indicators
of poor quality. As
for the Republican political fact the objective fact is that the
political agenda set by Trump, characterized by excessive tone was not
liked by the electorate Republican, if not on a minority, certainly
beyond the traditional voters. The
winner, Ruiz, in fact, although not itself a classic expression of the
Conservative Party, was able to exploit the religious setting of his
electoral program, in opposition to the Obama presidency, gaining
support especially in evangelical circles, who provided crucial support for the victory. For
Trump are missing voters less certain, those who do not always
participate in the vote and from which he expected the boost needed for
the victory of the billionaire. Of
course we are only at the early stages and this may change when they
are challenged other countries, especially those where the Tea Party
gathers more support, but the indication of Iowa is the sign of a trend
that should not be underestimated. The
fear of an electorate Republican easy prey to excessive ideas and
little moderate eased out, but at the same time it states a success of a
more marked on the religious aspect as a central subject of the
political program, worrying those responsible Republicans, who do not
like excessive
extremism of the conduct of the party, where already the Tea Party
appears to be not widely appreciated by the senior management. Everything
always in the wake of stiff opposition to the Democratic nomination of
Hillary Clinton, which is one of the essential problems of the political
program of Ruiz. The
candidate of Cuban origin can be seen more favorably for the intention
demonstrated the will to want to unify the party, a dowry seen as
crucial by the Republican Steering and missing entirely, instead, to
Donald Trump. Moreover
since the entry into the race of the billionaire, the party has not
seen favorably political programs carried out with too much emphasis and
outside the scheme moderate, which have been identified as further
divisive for a party, where there are already too many conflicting currents that give the perception of a political body excessively fragmented. He
not at all the same Ruiz rightly emphasized his ability to unify the
party as one of the main qualities, able to facilitate the victory. In fact the gap in Iowa between Ruiz and Trump was only worth around four percent; a statement that the game's traditional voters, but not to the executive apparatus away from any other surprises. In
any case, the big loser of the consultation Iowa is just the top
Republican, who liked rather the affirmation of Rubio, now identified as
the ideal candidate by party leaders, after Jeb Bush is out of the
picture. The
third place obtained by Rubio could bestow upon this candidate
electoral funding that was intended precisely to Bush and favor the odd
man out in the nomination fight. The
signal confirming however, the great division within the party that
helps to create additional uncertainty about who to elect presidential
candidate. In
the democratic camp also nominated Clinton, although winner, had
confirmed the forecast survey, obtaining the first place with the result
of 49.9% against 49.6% of Sanders, who betrays some doubts about the
regularity of the accounting electoral. The
comeback of the candidate who calls himself a socialist, that will win
about 40% compared to the forecast, it is pretty much a win and it is a
real alarm for Hillary Clinton, forced to move more and more to the left
on his election program, not to leave larger and larger spaces in what is now his main rival. Compared
to the beginning of the election campaign, Clinton now promises an
increased taxation for high net worth and more control on speculative
financial. This
shift, while it might enable him to gain some consensus, the other is
likely to alienate more moderate and consensus together, the more
suspicious about the real conviction that this radical political tack. Clinton
is the Democratic nominee favored, but the narrow victory in Iowa shows
that the potential votes of the left can move the electoral programs
and thus leave open some glimmer of hope for those who tried so sincere
from the very beginning.
