Sanders Dominates New Hampshire Primary, Biden Slumps To 5th, Yang Suspends Campaign

Sanders, who soundly defeated Hillary Clinton here in 2016 and is from neighboring Vermont, has been expected to perform well here, and while MSNC has been crowing about the decline in support that Bernie is seeing this year compared to 2016, they forget to mention that it was him and Hillary last time – and not the smorgasbord of billionaires and upstarts that the Democratic field consists of today.

Elizabeth Warren, like Sanders, is a senator from a neighboring state, and was also hoping to finish near the top here. However, that was not be in and her losing speech, she criticizes the negative campaigning and says to get the turnout to beat Donald Trump, Democrats will need a candidate that people can get behind.

“We cannot afford to fall into factions,” she says.

“We win when we come together.”

In the early poll results, Sanders is dominating, with Buttigieg and Klobuchar fighting it out for second. Hunter Biden’s dad has fallen down to 5th place behind Warren…

Andrew Yang plans to announce he is suspending his presidential campaign during a speech Tuesday night in New Hampshire, two sources tell CNN.  It’s the end to an upstart run that vaulted the businessman from obscurity to a Democratic contender backed by a devoted following known as the Yang Gang.

“The math just didn’t work out,” Yang Campaign Manager Zach Graumann says.

And as the first results from New Hampshire arrive, and following his disastrous showing in Iowa, Joe Biden is already on the ground in South Carolina, where his campaign believes he is better represented due to the more diverse demographics than states like Iowa and New Hampshire.

CNN’s John King proclaimed a very bad night for Elizabeth Warren and Joe Biden…

“You’re not first, you’re not second, you’re not third anywhere on the map. That’s the definition of a very bad night,” he said of Biden’s campaign.

As a reminder, in modern history, candidates don’t place worse than second in New Hampshire and still go on to become the nominee.

We suspect it’s all over for Hunter Biden’s dad. And the money thinks so too…

CNN, helpfully, predicts that Trump will win the New Hampshire GOP Primary.
