LAS VEGAS - Bernie Sanders solidified his front-runner status with what appeared to be a decisive victory in the Democratic presidential caucuses in Nevada on Saturday, while Joe Biden was on track for a second-place finish that would give his struggling campaign new hope.
Sanders had 44% of the county convention delegates in Nevada with about 11% of the precincts reported, as results were slow to roll in six hours after the caucuses began. Biden was a distant second to Sanders with 25%, but ahead of former Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, in third with 15%.
The race now begins to broaden across the country, with the next primary on Feb. 29 in South Carolina, followed by the Super Tuesday contests in 14 states on March 3 that pick more than one-third of the pledged delegates who will help select a Democratic nominee.
After a technical meltdown delayed results in Iowa, state officials promised a revised reporting system using a telephone hotline and photos of caucus reporting sheets would ensure a smoother process.
Oh-My-God-Omniabsolute=Gravitational-Constant: The USA 🇺🇸 Government is in an Internal-feud with itself. Wherefore it's can't do anything but lose & lose for the duration of this dellema. Abeit, dissolvement is metamorphosing as we exist in this EPOCH. (FYI, acumen & perplexed).
Or possibly PeteButtigieg ? With 22 % looks like St Bernie, but with 40 some % not the 54% being touted with just 10% reporting. Decisive? Schmessisive! All the work and money Old Yeller put in if he doesn't crack 50% it says he just won't beat Trump.
But was it really 75,000 voters out of 3 million inhabitants? What does that even mean?
No, no it wouldn't.
Come on South Carolina....America needs a new pair of shoes!!!!!
Congratulations to Bernie! I truly hope that the US will get out of current madness and darkness that dictator and vindictive liar Trump currently represents!
Eh, being second to Bernie Sanders in any caucus/primary vote shouldn't give any campaign hope. A SOCIALIST BEAT YOU!!!!!
As Sanders surges forward Pete is taking it in the rear.
Well done Bernie: Go and beat Trump like a drum.
Why did sanders repeatedly declined to vote on sanctions on Russia?
Looks like the bongo player might take flight with all the leftover fabric on that dress shirt at the beginning. About as flimsy as his presidential run BernieSanders BeagleMeghean
