Apparently Bernie's camp is going to release the vote totals in a few minutes. Maybe from their app, maybe they have the official count.

I  think he knows he won.  Because - if I understand correctly - at each caucus, the results were finalized and the people left knowing the results of their race.

The campaigns all had people on the ground at each event

The part that is taking time is the precincts getting the data to the HQ and proving all the results, etc.

I think it's why Pete waited until 12, until his campaign was reasonably certain enough of the results.  It makes for a much stronger set of news clips and commercials, so i understand why he didn't wait if they were sure.

We're talking about rigging but can you really rig a caucus? Like, the people left knowing who won unlike a primary. What can they really do about that?

There are only two logical possibilities in my mind regarding Buttigieg's stunt.

Either he actually won (which would be shocking) or he came in second and is declaring that he "emerged victorious" after outperforming polls, deliberately taking advantage of the confusion to get some headlines. 

If it's the latter, he is a grade-a cynical scumbag.

I could also see him making that speech after a strong second, which would make him a more viable candidate to others.

On the bright side, Pete was able to gather up the entirety of his support among African Americans and have them stand behind him during that speech.

Why is every woman on the bottom row behind Pete in that video black?

He probably put them there on purpose. 

I'm cringing.
