  • Governor Scott Walker

Invited guests include:

“There’s always the chance for a candidate to have a defining moment at an event like this in Iowa. This dinner is an opportunity for our distinguished guests to set themselves apart and announce to Iowa and the country why they should be the next President of the United States,” Chairman Jeff Kaufmann said.

“While the Democrats continue their slow march toward coronation, the Republican Party will be holding a vibrant debate on the future of this country,” Co-Chair Cody Hoefert said. “The Lincoln Dinner is an important stepping stone for candidates on their way to the caucuses in February 2016.”
