The 2012 presidential election is over, but perhaps the 2016 contest has already begun. Florida senator Marco Rubio, a star in the Republican party, is headed to Iowa.
There, he will attend a fundraiser for Iowa governor Terry Branstad.
Alex Conant, a Rubio spokesman, tweets:
Just announced: @MarcoRubio will headline @TerryBranstad's bday fundraiser on 11/17/12 in Altoona, IA
