There needs to be a full investigation into the Iowa caucus and all the shadiness happening. 

My bet is it won't happen though.

Those are the rules by which the Iowa Caucuses have always declared the victor. Sorry that you don't just get to change them now. Bernie could've campaigned in rural Iowa like Pete did, but Bernie did not do that. 

Pete was endorsed by literally every single black mayor in the state of Iowa. POC do not know who Pete is yet, but when they do, they will like his message.

Lastly, the two most recent national polls show Bernie with the worst odds against trump and Pete having the best.

That's all folks! Thanks for playing! But Pete won Iowa :)

The results aren't all out. He hasn't won Iowa. 

 

As for the national polls, we can go back and forth cherrypicking polls and I'm not going to do that. There are many other polls recent and otherwise showing that Pete doesn't beat Trump.

So when are we getting the results?

It took Iowa two weeks in the Republican Caucus back in 2012. It may be a while.

Perched for New Hampshire:bon:

With Biden OUT, it will be between Buttigieg and Sanders. 

If Buttigieg snatches New Hampshire, his campaign will gain huge momentum.

I can't wait for NH either. This win should give him momentum going into the primary. Great job, Mayor Pete !

@Whispering what's good sis? I see you LMAO-ing facts. It's almost like you think everything I say can't possibly be true because I support Bernie Sanders. Go back and watch MSNBC and roll the tapes. The reason Pete is winning in state delegates despite losing the popular vote even with 75% in is because at the precinct level delegates are assigned in a round up/round down scenario.

Well he’s currently polling at 14% meanwhile Bernies at like 30% so good luck to him with that.

I was surprised at Pete’s overwhelming support on the second rounds. In precincts where supporters of marginal candidates had to disband and move to a second choice, the candidate they chose-twice as often as any other candidate-was Buttigieg. He won by being broadly acceptable.

On issue after issue, Buttigieg was either the favorite or second favorite candidate. Among caucusgoers who cared most about health care, he tied for the lead with Sanders. Among those who cared most about foreign policy, he came in second to Biden. Among those who focused on electability, he tied for the lead, drawing 24 percent to Biden’s 23 percent. Sanders got 31 percent of first-time caucusgoers, but Buttigieg was next with 25 percent.

Yeah, Pete has the lead he has right now  thanks to people who switched to him after the first round. On the one hand, that may help him look like someone who can unite the party. The data definitely portrays him as someone with broad appeal. But on the other hand, it brings into question how he may perform in an actual primary.

When they release the results of polk county, I suspect there Pete won't be leading in SDE's or the popular vote.

That’s true, too. 

Being second choice is good when people drop out. 

Who knows? It’s fun to watch and speculate! :)
