The results, marred by technical and organizational errors, could reshape the 2020 race for the Democratic presidential nomination
WASHINGTON/MANCHESTER — Pete Buttigieg narrowly won Iowa’s Democratic presidential caucuses, the state party said on Thursday, after a long delay in releasing the results of the first contest in the race to pick a challenger to Republican President Donald Trump.
The results, which have been marred by technical and organizational errors, could reshape the 2020 race for the Democratic presidential nomination for November’s election and raise doubts about the future of Biden, the one-time front-runner. Officials blamed inconsistencies related to a new mobile app used for vote counting for the unusual delay in Iowa, the state that traditionally kicks off a U.S. presidential election campaign that culminates this year on Nov. 3.
He said any review was unlikely to change the composition of the state’s 41 delegates to the Democratic National Convention. Asked later at a CNN event if he would request a recanvass, Sanders said: “We’ve got enough of Iowa. I think we should move on to New Hampshire.” “They can’t count some simple votes and yet they want to take over your healthcare system,” Trump said of Democrats during an address celebrating his acquittal on impeachment charges.
