DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott’s presidential campaign says the Republican is shifting staff and money from New Hampshire to Iowa in an effort to boost his standing in the leadoff caucus state with less than three months until the first votes of the 2024 election are cast. Scott plans to open a new state headquarters in suburban Des Moines and double his Iowa staff, though campaign aides did not say Monday how many people would be moving from New Hampshire. Scott’s campaign manager Jennifer DeCasper says “Tim Scott is all in on Iowa.”
