Time for the shoutout.
大喊時間到了。
Which U.S. state traditionally holds the first contests to choose each major party`s presidential nominee? If you think you know it, shout it out.
從傳統意義上講，美國哪個州舉辦主要政黨總統候選人的第一次競選。
Is it (a), Delaware, (b), Iowa, (c), New Hampshire, (d), Hawaii? You`ve got three seconds. Go.
是(a)特拉華 (a)愛荷華 (a)新罕布什爾州 (a)夏威夷？ 你有三秒鐘。開始吧。
For decades, the Iowa caucuses have been the first nomination contest. The New Hampshire primary comes second. That`s your answer and that`s your shout-out.
幾十年來，愛荷華州一直舉辦第一次提名角逐。新罕布什爾州初選緊隨其后。這是你的答案，這是你的大喊。
But that doesn`t necessarily mean that the Democrat and the Republican who win in Iowa will ultimately win their party`s nomination.
但不論民主黨還是共和黨，誰在愛荷華贏得了選舉并不意味著最終將能贏得政黨提名。
It`s a first step in the nominating process and at this point, it`s scheduled for February 1st.
它是提名過程中的第一步，此刻將定于二月一日。
There`s one fewer Republican in the race, though. Late last week, former Texas Governor Rick Perry suspended his campaign. He was running low on funding.
然而在這場角逐中共和黨人少了一位。上周晚些時候，前德克薩斯州州長佩里因經費不足暫停競選。
That means as of today, there are 16 Republicans currently seeking their party`s nomination. The latest CNN/ORC polls showed that businessman Donald Trump is leading the pack.
這就意味著，目前有16名共和黨人正在尋求政黨提名。根據最新的CNN/ORC民調顯示，商人唐納德·特朗普領先群雄。
On the Democratic side, five people have officially announced that they`re running. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton leads the Democrats in the polling so far.
在民主黨方面，五人已經正式宣布參加競選。至今，前國務卿克林頓·希拉里領跑民主黨投票。
