LIVE coverage of the Iowa Republican Straw Poll in Ames begins at Noon ET with a preview program on the history and the impact of the 32-year old event, which is also a fundraiser for the Iowa Republican Party. The straw poll begins at 1pm ET from the campus of Iowa State University at the Hilton Coliseum. It traditionally takes place in August in years without an incumbent Republican president running for re-election. Iowa residents over the age of 18 years old can vote for one of the 9 Republican candidates on the straw poll ballot, but only six will speak at the event including Bachmann, Cain, McCotter, Paul, Pawlenty, and Santorum. Newt Gingrich, John Huntsman and Mitt Romney will only appear on the ballot.
