CNN IS STATING THAT O'MALLEY WILL SUSPENSE HIS CAMPAIGN IN AROUND 40 MINUTES

It's probably going to be really close between Bernie and Clinton in NH now.

How did the number of reporting precincts decrease from 69% to 63%? What???

[Reginald]

1.4% point margin statewide. I'd say about half of Des Moines has reported, if that.

[Tender Branson]

This is a great night, no matter how it ends.

Even if it means I end up losing 70€ I bet on Sanders and Rubio.

[Illiniwek]

This is a great night, no matter how it ends.

[Wake Me Up When The Hard Border Ends]

Who will O'Malley endorse? I'm thinking Clinton?

[Illiniwek]

Oh damn.... Hillary down to 50... (cringes)

But why is O'Malley at 1?

[Boston Bread]

I'd expect O'Malley to endorse Clinton (like every other Dem officeholder) but most of his supporters will go to Sanders.

Wow, I didn't expect such a photo finish! Even if Hillary pulls this out (my gut says she just squeaks by), it's hard to call this a bad result for the Bern.

[WVdemocrat]

O'Malley's calling it quits it seems. Too bad. His presidency would have been historic. He really would have been one for the books. Seriously not happy about this.

On a lighter note, I guess I'm jumping ship to Bernie. Bern, baby, Bern!

[The Other Castro]

I don't know who has the most up to date results, but AP has 76% in with Clinton leading 50.3-49.

[Panhandle Progressive]

Wow, I didn't expect such a photo finish! Even if Hillary pulls this out (my gut says she just squeaks by), it's hard to call this a bad result for the Bern.

Actually it is very bad for Bernie. Iowa is his third most friendly demographic state so if he can't win there he has little chance winning anywhere else outside of Vermont/N.H.

They predicted early John Bel Edwards and Matt Bevin would win.

Bernie wins the night regardless of who wins the state. Huge showing for Bernie. The calendar is still tough for him going forward but this gives him some juice.

The thing is this is close enough for the media to spin this as a "ZOMG Sanders almost won he's gaining on Clinton she's collapsing!!!111!!"

[OSR stands with Israel]

Go Clinton

That's an exaggeration, but even so, he overperformed expectations, and did what people until recently thought was unthinkable: He pulled even with Hillary.
