Co-founded Hoi-Polloi, "a people’s organization created by a small group of conscientious thinkers striving for world peace."; Campaign manager on Jay Fetcher's 2004 state Senate campaign in Colorado; Des Moines organizer on Howard Dean's Iowa caucus campaign.
Since 1972, Iowa has been the first state to vote in presidential primaries, with their caucuses.
On 3 January 2012, Intrade settled contracts related to the 2012 Iowa caucus in favor of bettors supporting Mitt Romney, on the basis that Iowa Republican Party chairman Matt Strawn (incidentally a Rick Santorum supporter) had declared Romney to be the winner by a narrow margin of 8 votes, adding that there would be no recount.
The Santos campaign initially loses the Iowa caucus, comes in third in the New Hampshire primary at 19% and goes on to win a come-from-behind victory in the California primary.
