The Official Iowa Caucus Thread

Can't wait to see Bernie win the primary so he can be painted as a dirty commie in the general.


Socialism/Communism will finally get it's day in modern American court of public opinion. No more misunderstandings, no more flirting with the ideas.

Its going to be amazing to watch.
 
Breaking news alert. They are projecting Donald Trump as winner in the Iowa Republican caucus. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-us-canada-51351106

Trump wins Iowa
AP News projects that Trump has (predictably) won Iowa.

He was up against two other Republicans, but due to his overwhelming support from the Republican party, it had been considered a foregone conclusion that he would win.

We still have hours to go until we know who Iowa Democrats want to take him on in November 2020.

Why we might see more than one ‘winner’

At each of the 1,677 locations across the state, a candidate must have the support of at least 15% of voters in order to qualify for a chance to win Iowa delegates to the national convention in July - when the candidate is ultimately picked.

After a first round of tabulations, those who support a candidate that doesn't reach "viability" have the opportunity to switch sides.

Complicating everything is the new reporting system the Democratic Party has instituted for the Iowa caucus results.

In the past, the party has only released one number - the final tabulation of support after all the caucus horse-trading and support swapping takes place. This time, however, there will be two sets of numbers - the final tally as well as a count of each candidate's support in the first round of balloting.

That means two - or more! - candidates could be on stage declaring victory on Monday night.

It has the makings for a long, chaotic night - the first of what could be many for the candidates still standing after the Iowa dust settles.

When Ron Paul ran in 2012, three different people were named winners of the Iowa Caucus. At different points, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum were declared winners before it was decided Ron was the actual winner. It took until June to finally decide- five months later.
 
Big night for mayor Pete. Could pull this out because he is the second choice of more people than comrade.

Biden is a dumpster fire. Sounds horrible on the stump. I truthfully have a hard time seeing any of these people beating Trump.

Wondering why there’s no results? Party officials tell me they’re doing “quality control,” making sure preference cards and turnout align with results.


Nate Cohn, in New York 2m ago

The lack of results from Iowa is not normal. By this time in 2016, nearly 80% of the total vote was counted, based on the data we saved from 2016.

Sanders won. That's why it's taking so long. They keep going over the numbers trying to put Buttigieg on top.
 
Nothing suspicious about delays and scrambling. Even better will be when they change the results in 4 weeks.

I would love to see Warren pull this out, but it's not going to happen. She doesn't stand a chance against Trump. Biden is currently 5th lol
