DES MOINES, Iowa, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Republican presidential candidates Herman Cain and Mitt Romney are neck and neck among likely Iowa caucus-goers, a Des Moines Register poll indicated Saturday.
The Iowa Poll gave Cain, a former pizza company executive from Georgia, 23 percent to 22 percent for Romney, a former Massachusetts governor. That's a 13-point improvement for Cain since the newspapers last poll in late June and a significant jump since he placed fifth in the mid-August Iowa straw poll.
