What Did — And Didn’t — Go Down In The Iowa Caucuses

While we’re waiting for most results to come in (and I’m waiting for my precinct to start voting), here’s another anecdote from my time in Iowa City that brought home to me just how seriously Iowans take their role in our political process. I met a student at the University of Iowa who has been volunteering for Warren, but has three siblings — all of whom support different campaigns. “My brother is on Biden’s campaign, one sister with Buttigieg, the other sister with Bernie,” he said. It was at that moment that I felt I had reached Peak Iowa.

We do have around around 20 precincts reporting first alignment results, and it’s Buttigieg 21, Sanders 22, Biden 17, Warren 17, Klobuchar 15

Nathaniel, I can confirm those reports with my own two eyes 😉 — there are two precincts in this building and both still had people in line at 7 pm.
