Despite polling at 2 percent in Iowa, 2020 Democratic candidate Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) said on Sunday that she’s “happy to be in the top six” of the 23-person Democratic primary race.

A new CNN/Des Moines Register poll released on Saturday shows that two percent of Iowa caucus participants support Klobuchar and Beto O’Rourke, while Joe Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) are ahead, most by double digits. All the other candidates trail behind by one percent or less.

“Are there just too many candidates running?” asked “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan. “Why do you think only a handful are actually breaking through?”

“Well, first of all, I am happy to be in the top six and ahead of 18 people, and we have got a long campaign ahead of us,” Klobuchar said. “I’ve always been a Vikings fan and I can’t tell you how many games, Margaret, the Vikings were leading in the first quarter and go on to not quite make it so I think you see a fluid race and yes there are a lot of candidates and you are going to see that narrow down over time.”

Most of Iowa's youth end up in the South Suburbs of the Twin Cities,and Iowa is known jokingly as Minnesota's Baja.

3. The debates will change things a lot

I think the women are going to shine during the debates, and show the country they have what it takes to beat trump. I have watched Klobuchar debate health care along with Bernie back when trump first took office. They took Lindsey Graham and another republican. Amy keep on topic, did not let the republicans take control. She did great, and will again.
