Trump sues Des Moines Register and top pollster over final Iowa survey

President-elect Donald Trump is escalating his legal campaign against media outlets by suing renowned pollster J. Ann Selzer, her polling firm, The Des Moines Register newspaper and its parent company Gannett.
Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against the Des Moines Register and Ann Selzer, a prominent pollster, over the final Iowa poll before the caucuses. The lawsuit claims that the poll, which showed Trump leading but with a significant portion of voters undecided, was misleading and potentially damaging to his campaign. Trump's legal action argues that the poll's methodology was flawed, particularly in how it handled undecided voters, and that it misrepresented his support base. The suit seeks unspecified damages and aims to challenge the credibility of the poll, which has been influential in shaping public and political perceptions of the Iowa caucuses. This legal move comes amidst Trump's broader strategy to contest polls and media narratives that he perceives as unfavorable.
