Independent Voters on the 2012 Campaign

The Takeaway

This week President Obama begins his first campaign tour of the 2012 election, touring five key swing states this week: Iowa, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, and Michigan. The independent or undecided voters in these crucial states are what will decide the 2012 election. The Takeaway turns to two such voters to see which issues are most important to them. Larry Reinsch  is state organizer for the Independent Voters of Iowa.  Dan Starr  is a registered Independent from Tucson, Arizona.
