(ABC 6 News) – We are now less than five weeks away from the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses, and former-President Donald Trump still commands a strong lead in the polls.

While Trump still dominates the Republican field, former South Caroline Governor Nikki Haley hopes to catch voters eyes as an alternative to Trump.
