The Hawkeye State (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iowa

'the hawkeye state' is the definition.
('Iowa' can be a synonym of 'hawkeye state')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for iowa that I've seen before include "'Hawkeye State'" , "American state, capital Des Moines" , "US state, capital Des Moines" , "US swing electoral state" , "part of United States" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the LA Times, The Sunday Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Penny Press, the USA Today and the Universal.
