Only 62 percent of the results have been released.
used to report the results of the nearly 1,700 precincts. That app, state officials said, had a “coding issue” that led to “inconsistencies.” Officials had to turn to their manual backups and promised results sometime Tuesday.
Now, almost a full day after the caucuses started, we still don’t have a full answer. The state’s Democratic Party has not said when it will report the rest of the numbers. But from the slight majority that were released, it appears that Buttigieg and Sanders are solidly ahead of former Vice President Joe Biden, who is in fourth place, behind Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
In the precincts reporting, Buttigieg has won nearly 27 percent of the delegates. Sanders follows with 25 percent, and Warren has collected 18 percent. Biden, with 16 percent, is three points ahead of Sen. Amy Klobuchar. It’s worth reiterating that the 62 percent of the precincts that have been reported are not necessarily representative of the whole state. Sanders, who leads the popular vote, could surpass Buttigieg in delegate count.
Buttigieg told his supporters on Monday night that Iowa had “shocked the nation” and “by all indications, we are going.” Those comments were widely mocked as premature. He later said that he had not intended to say he was the night’s literal winner but that he had felt he had come out of the night with a feeling of momentum.is—something the candidates, who spent a collective $40 million in Iowa, know too well. A victory in the state can play a large role in shaping the narrative of the race.
