DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Here are the latest developments from the 2016 race for president, one week out from the Iowa caucuses. All times local.

Ben Cohen of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream fame is backing Bernie Sanders’ bid for the Democratic presidential nomination with a personal flavor called “Bernie’s Yearning.”
The website http://berniesyearning.com shows packaging bearing a picture of Sanders under the heading “Vermont’s Finest Senator” and a “Ben’s Best” label, rather than a Ben & Jerry’s brand.
Cohen says the flavor is his alone, with no connection with Ben & Jerry’s Homemade, Inc., or Sanders’ campaign.
