ELI5: Historically, how important is the Iowa primary?

Author Summary

GeoffreyYeung is in Iowa

Post Body

I saw enough why, but not enough data / how. Are there any statistics on the effect of the Iowa primary results?

Also, how accurate are the Iowa polls, both currently and right before voting?
