David Yepsen Talks The 2016 Campaign

Director of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, David was the chief political reporter for The Des Moines Register, where he worked for 34 years. He was dubbed “The King of the Iowa Caucuses” by The Washington Post. According to the late Sen. Paul Simon, “Every four years the chief political reporter for The Des Moines Register becomes the most important reporter in the nation.”


David is a longtime TV political commentator. In addition to weighing in on cable news, he also was the Keynote Speaker at our 2015 Annual Awards Dinner where he discussed the Iowa caucuses. The crowd loved him, and David enjoyed answering many thoughtful questions from the audience. And not surprisingly, David correctly predicted that Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton would win the Republican and Democratic contests in Iowa.



If you're interested in this year's exciting presidential race, you can't find anyone better than David Yepsen to talk about what has happened and to break down what likely will take place through Election Day.
