Democratic Iowa Caucus results thread (entrance poll @8pm ET)

[IceSpear]

The fact that the media is trying to spill this as a win for Sanders is laughable (though very predictable). It's a virtual tie, but it's in one of Sanders' top 5 states demographically. It would be equivalent to Bernie tying Clinton in a Deep South state.

Sanders started this race in single digits, little resources and low name recognition. He was able to tie Clinton in a state. That's pretty impressive - how many people suspected when he first announced that he would be even with Clinton tonight?

What's your point? We've known for months that Sanders is going to do a lot better than most expected early on. He still doesn't have a path to the nomination if he can't win one of his top 5 most demographically favorable states.

Mitchell County will kill Sanders

Quick Question? Anyone have any figures on the voter turnout?! I believe it was 240K in 08.

lmao Sanders camp are claiming a 'moral' victory.

A 'moral' victory? Sanders is the least moral politician in decades. He is a known sexist. He is a known communist. He'll probably just surrender to ISIS immediately if he wins the election.

A 74 year old joke candidate and non Democrat who never even expected himself to have a chance has just pulled 49% against a candidate literally the entire party (even Liz Warren) except for Martin O'Malley made way for. Gotta think about what that says about his message.

What's left is predominately in the city of Osage. Might not be that bad.

It says that either voting fraud was committed, or 49% of the Democratic base is extremely misogynist.

Or what it says about Hillary's popularity (or lack thereof) within our party....:/

The media wanted a horserace.

Warren would have clobbered Clinton if she had run instead of Sanders.

It says more about the strength of Bernie's message. Keep in mind that few other democrats could defeat Bernie.

Warren would have clobbered Clinton if she had run instead of Sanders.

And she would have then been clobbered by Rubio in the general.

I beg to differ. Any male Democrat could beat that communist/national socialist, no question. Clearly, the Democratic base is just misogynist.

This phenomenon has little to nothing to do with the mass media. The fact that Sanders supporters are overwhelmingly young should make this obvious. Repeating that claim over and over will not make it true.

My God its horrible ... the Democrats are eating each other.

Kind of important to keep some perspective here.

Sanders would destroy Biden in a primary, and Biden is as well-known and has as many connections as Clinton.

'Shrillary Clinton'

[The Free North]

Is she using a teleprompter?

[pho]

WTF did Hillary just say she can make universal health care happen? After all that shade she threw at Sanders? My god this woman...

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

I think Clinton has this, barely. But the nomination is not yet over.
