"Vivek Ramaswamy's Unconventional Iowa Strategy: Free Beer and Door-to-Door Campaigning"
TL;DR
Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican candidate in Iowa, has been hosting "Free Speech and Free Drinks" events on college campuses, attracting mostly male crowds with a frat house atmosphere. Despite struggling in polls, he insists he's inspiring first-time caucusgoers, but many attendees are there for the free alcohol rather than political engagement. Polling shows he's made a bigger impact with men than with women, and some students are more interested in partying than in supporting his campaign.
