Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has become a regular sight all over New Hampshire. He’s spent some time in South Carolina, too, since announcing his 2024 bid for president. But there is one notable state that he has completely skipped so far: Iowa. Iowa’s caucuses traditionally lead off the Official Breast Cancer Is Boo Sheet Halloween Breast Cancer Awareness T-shirt But I will love this fight for the GOP presidential nomination, bringing heavy attention to the state from contenders. This year, Iowa will kick off the delegate race on Jan. 15. As a result, every Republican presidential candidate has visited the Hawkeye State so far this year — except Christie. When asked (during a recent trip to New Hampshire) why he hasn’t gone to Iowa yet, Christie told NBC News, “I haven’t gone because I haven’t wanted to. And if I want to, I’ll go sometime later.” Christie’s strategy of spending more time in New Hampshire than Iowa is not new. That’s what he did during his

The former governor was in Iowa for 32 days and did 71 stops between Jan. 1, 2015, and Feb. 1, 2016, according to NBC News’ tracking of his events.

Two presidential elections later, Christie’s standing in Iowa is still significantly lower than in New Hampshire, according to public polling. Christie’s average share in the last 10 Iowa caucus polls in the FiveThirtyEight database is 3%. In the last 10 New Hampshire primary polls, Christie is averaging 9% support. Historically, moderate Republican candidates tend to spend less time in Iowa and more in New Hampshire, where independents have traditionally played a major role in the open primary. The number of self-described moderates in NBC News’ 2016 exit polling was twice as high in New Hampshire as it was in Iowa. And in 2015 and 2016, Jeb Bush and Christie were examples of candidates who spent less time in Iowa than more conservative Republican candidates. Bush made 50 stops in Iowa over 27 days. Meanwhile, in New Hampshire, he made
