Default Iowa Caucuses (First voting to decide US Presidental Nominees.)
With about over 50% reporting, right now

Clinton is leading Bernie by 1% and Cruz is leading Trump by 3% and Rubio by 6%

Bernie has been catching up to Clinton all night.

I live here and I've never seen this much coverage before to be honest. All over the world. It's truely amazing

Around 75% reporting for both parties.

Cruz is still leading by a couple percent

Clinton by 1%

They're not splitting the delegates, so whoever wins with 100% precincts reporting gets all the delegates.

Yeah, the gap widened with 92% reporting. I'd say Hilary won Iowa.

Now for the important race tomorrow, getting out of the state. Blizzard is hitting the state tonight through tomorrow.

All these reporters will be trapped her with us. Mwah Ha Ha Ha

If the margin is this close between Bernie and Hillary throughout, it wouldn't surprise me if he decided to run independently

Trump talked about loving everybody in Iowa. No discussion about what it feels like being a loser...

Doesn't sound like too big a disaster for Trump yet because of how strong the religious vote is in Iowa. He and Cruz should both be worried about how close Rubio's third place was though, puts him in a very strong position

The race will be decided when the Democrats announce their candidate. I think the Republicans will be dealt their worst defeat in years in the coming election. Trump has offended everyone but his small fanbase and even Fox News doesn't want to get behind him while Cruz simply won't be able to compete with either Bernie or Hillary.

The Republicans haven't learnt from the last two elections that the middle class white vote alone is not enough to win the White House any more.

They did but
none of them knew , Trump was going to Run
with his own Bigger Cash Budget.


Before Trump
they were all saying Jeb Bush
was the man to win
but he appeared weak when talking.

Its a bit of a disaster for Trump. His whole persona is that he's a winner, he's the best. Well, he didnt win, he wasnt the best and he almost came third. It may show that Trump supporters like to hear his rhetoric but when it comes to actually voting they didnt show up.

It was obvious Cruz would do well due to the heavy religious base in Iowa. The most fascinating thing for me is Bernie tying with Hillary yet less than six months ago we were told no one would be able to touch Hillary

I am glad Hilary won this one,even more pleased Trump failed in his bid,how representative of the USA is IOWA,my guess would be not greatly but perhaps someone from the States could enlighten us as to that.

I've said many times on here however I will be glad to see Hilary get the Democrat nomination and even more glad to see her win the presidency if she can.
I'm a strong Hilary fan.
