DESMOINES, Iowa - After months, of thousands upon thousands of volunteers wandering around the State of Iowa, officials expect to add at least 10,000 new caucusers come late summer and early fall of 2008.Apparently, these volunteers who went door to door, left behind more than leaflets and buttons.
State election officials said, "This phenomenon happens every four years, although we're expecting a bigger turn out in nine months this time, due to colder weather and the the caucus being earlier."
Merle Hardman, pharmacist at the local Rexall Drug Store, said, "I noticed people was buying more petroleum jelly, but I just figured it was the cow's teats that needed it, cus of the cold."
State Officials are contemplating whether to change the State nickname from the Hawkeye State to the Cockeyed State or even the One-eyed State.
