    Well you don’t have to trust internal numbers anymore. Every major news site has a tracker on Iowa and with 86% of precincts in, Pete is looking like the clear winner of most SDEs (historically what is used to define the winner of the Iowa caucus), while Bernie is looking like the clear winner of the popular vote.

    type "iowa caucus 2020 results" into google, and the Associated Press numbers will display. The results are at 92% reporting now.

    I'm failing to follow your point about how candidates release data over days that should have been released within hours.

    from my seats, Buttigieg got screwed by not having a bigger splash for this win...if he holds on in last 8%

    Candidates were forced to release their results because the IDP messed up. Iowa usually gets results the same day so the candidates can boast about the win going into the other states. It's the News Cycle the winner gets screwed out of.

    Pete declared himself winner without knowing if he was the winner. If Bernie ends up being the winner Pete stole his fire.

    How do you feel that Sanders has to battle it out with Pete in the most liberal state in this race?

    Sanders should be running away with Iowa.

    I don't understand (a) why that comment means I am trolling and/or am a troll, and (b) why you would feel compelled to label me as a "miserable person."

    on the other hand, you tend to demonstrate the depth of your character fairly well on a daily basis. so you've got THAT going for you . . . which is nice.

    It's a state Obama carried twice and biden got 4th... hes done. The public outing of all his corruption has destroyed him.

    You are a miserable person because you so crave attention on a message board you misrepresent yourself to get it.

    I thought you just trolled the D&D but it seems you do it all over this place.

    The depth of my character is that I don't mind calling trolls like you out.

    Yeah it is nice.

    I mean you went so far as to change your avatar to mine to try and get me rilled up.

    Who the **** does that?

    Oh yeah you also had me in your sig.

    That's why I called you miserable because you have to be to go to all that trouble to bait me.
