President Donald Trump on June 30 dropped his federal lawsuit against the Des Moines Register, pollster Ann Selzer, and related defendants and refiled it in Iowa state court.

The new complaint renews his claims that a poll conducted and published shortly before the 2024 presidential election was intentionally misleading and designed to sway voters against him.
