Turning Point Action activists made waves at the Iowa State Fair by heckling Democratic politicians. Videos of these confrontations have gained significant attention online. But Turning Point Action staff are busy registering voters and promoting social events, a test of its ability to shape the next Republican presidential primary in 2028. The organization is focusing on building a foundation for the Iowa caucuses, aiming to have staff in each of Iowa's 99 counties. This effort is not tied to any specific candidate, but Vice President JD Vance, endorsed by Erika Kirk, could benefit if he launches a bid.
