Democratic candidates for president are flocking to the Iowa State Fair this week, marking the symbolic start to caucus season when the campaigns are expected to shift into high gear.

Democratic candidates for president are flocking to the Iowa State Fair this week, an annual event filled with parades, pumpkin squashes and pork chops -- marking the symbolic start to caucus season when the campaigns are expected to shift into high gear.

"The Iowa State Fair is one of the biggest in the country, and it's a great opportunity for candidates to get their message out and listen to voters' concerns on the issues," said Iowa Democratic Party chair Troy Price."I expect subjects like agriculture, climate change and rural development to come up in conversation given the number of rural Iowans who will be showcasing their goods over the next 10 days.

For the lower tier of candidates, who are still grinding through a crowded field to gain traction, the state fair presents some of the last best chances before the fall to lay the groundwork for a successful showing in the Iowa caucuses next year -- if they make it that far. On Saturday, attendees will hear from Harris, Warren, Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., and six other candidates on the busiest day at the soapbox, before being treated to a moderate-progressive back-to-back between Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet and Sanders on Sunday. Sunday also will feature the fair's lone Republican candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld.

Presidential Candidates Beware the Iowa State FairFor most of its visitors, the Iowa State Fair is a bucolic stroll through Middle America, packed with fried food, fairground rides and agricultural feats. For presidential candidates, the 400-plus acre fairground can be more treacherous. This is stupid. People eat, it’s a thing they do. Try something different. Pack your own lunch. Then go there, and tell them 'no thanks, I brought my own'. Not eating corndogs is unamerican. Bad take
