Cedar Rapids, IA, April 04, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The first quarter of the election year is over and so far 38 states have held primaries and caucuses. The Iowa Caucus site located at IowaCaucus.biz strives to provide individuals with information on the Iowa Caucus process and the information on the presidential candidates in order to assist them in making a well-informed decision in the 2008 Presidential Election. The Iowa Caucus site is not sponsored by the Democratic Party or the Republican Party and is entirely bi-partisan.

The results of the election are just starting to be realized and can be found on the Iowa Caucus site. Campaign spending has hit record amounts this year and the data on the first state to hold a caucus is starting to materialize. The campaign spending for the state of Iowa alone will be close to $51,593,849. Of the 16 candidates for the 2008 presidential election that participated in the Iowa Caucus, a grand total of $457,802,866 was raised and spent by the end of 2007, three days before the Iowa Caucus. Although fundraising and expenditures for the presidential candidates did not stop after the Iowa Caucus and was not entirely focused on the Iowa Caucus, it does gives us a good indication of how expensive the 2008 Presidential election will be. To see where a bulk of the spending for the 2008 Presidential Campaigns will be focused the Iowa Caucus site looked at the Caucus results to see that TV ads alone were estimated between $37,750,000 and 43,000,000. This would indicate that the focus of the main presidential race would be spent on TV ads. We can use what has happened in the Iowa Caucus to also predict voter turn out, which will be a record year for voter participation. The role of the Iowa Caucus was in essence an opportunity to clear out half of the political candidates who would not have been able to continue campaigning or fundraising after Iowa. With that said, the amount of money raised before the Iowa Caucus does not necessarily represent the actual amount the candidates spent in Iowa. Most of the money spent by the individual candidates was to boost their campaign team. But with Iowa holding the title for 2008 as the state where the most money was spent for the 2008 election, it will be interesting to forecast how the future presidential elections will begin.
