In America, we have primary elections to determine who will be on the ticket for the individual political parties for the general election in November. First state to have their primary* is Iowa. Winning, or at least doing well will give you the momentum needed to win in the rest of the state primaries.

\* Technically it's a caucus, not a primary election, but the end result is the same.
