You may have noticed that there are two questions on the site regarding the Iowa Republican caucuses. The reason is that with the launch of the Monkey Cage challenge, we wanted a broad question that rates the chances of all of the candidates.

This question will be the official question for the Monkey Cage challenge, but they’ll be looking at data from both to see if there are any differences in forecasted probabilities based on the framing of the question.
