President Donald Trump scored a legal win on Friday as his lawsuit against Iowa pollster J. Ann Selzer and the Des Moines Register was moved to state court from federal court. The case will now be heard in Iowa State Court, marking a significant development in Trump's ongoing efforts to challenge the accuracy of Iowa election polls. Selzer has been a frequent target of Trump's criticism over her polling methods, which have been widely praised by experts and Democrats alike. The move to state court is seen as a favorable turn for Trump, who had hoped to avoid the more stringent standards of federal court proceedings.
