DES MOINES, Iowa — Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and his family gathered at the Coram Deo Bible Church, a nondenominational church in Davenport, for Sunday service just hours before Iowa GOP voters head to their caucus sites.

The Florida governor has attended over a dozen church services across the state, according to his campaign, making this critical voting bloc a central part of his bid for president.
