Bernie Sanders wins New Hampshire. (~ 25.7%)
This is the first time a non-president won the New Hampshire primary back to back. (Sanders won 4 years ago also.)Mayor Pete was close though (~ 24.4 %).
Klobuchar (< 20%) leapfrogs over Warren (~9.4%) & Biden (~8.4 %)
Both Yang (2.8 %) & Bennet (0.3 %) drop out of race.
Bloomberg waits for the next one.
In the meantime we can expect to see several Bernie smear blogs on here.

The 'Crats annihilated their own frontrunner
Sleepy's campaign dirge -
She was a DNC Super Delegate in '16 & schooled Bern in Socialism when she redistributed the Primary votes he'd earned in Minnesota to Hildebeest.
I'm picking up on that IRL.
Some very ardent Bernie Bros from '16 still like him but given his age (turning 80 the year he'd be inaugurated) they grudgingly admit that his future is in his past.
Should he pull of the nomination, MUCH would depend on his Veep pick.
Voters could be persuaded to vote the future - for '24 & '28, one might say.
I've been a bit surprised that Gabbard hasn't done better.
Could be that Gabbard backers also like The Bern & envision Tulsi to be the Veep lead-in to '24,
It makes sense.
Even if the ticket lost, Gabbard will have gotten exposure & recognition for the future.
I find it difficult NOT imaging her as Prez at some time.

my guess is, that you have imagined her roll playing in many more positions than president.
He apologized for his previous targeted stop & frisk police practice.
He now sees where it was wrong.
By the way, Trump supported it and stated so much more recently.
He now sees where it was wrong.
He apologized... he now sees where it was wrong.
That's a hoot!
He said that too few blacks are being stopped and frisked and too many whites are being stopped and frisked. He said "you throw minorities up against a wall" that's how you deal with them.
When did he say it? 30 years ago, 20 maybe? NO! Five years ago. FIVE YEARS.
And he didn't just say it once on this video, he said it over and over again for the entire 11 years he was mayor of New York.
Suddenly now that he is running for president as a Democrat (he changed his party from Republican to Independent now to Democrat depending on what line of BS he was peddling to get elected) he has this amazing epiphany ....
I HAVE SEEN THE PROMISED LAND
PRAISE JESUS!
Bloomberg is a FAKE, PHONY AND A FRAUD.
He won't even get to the point where President Trump rips him to shreds, the other Democrats will take care of that the first time he has to actually make an appearance and show up at a debate.
The Governor was considering an Independent Prez run in '16 using ballot access via the Libertarian Party.
Had he prevailed, he'd have been the 1st non-party affiliated Prez since Washington.
I agree with his views which align with those of Gabbard, Kwiatkowski & Butler ...
I could've pulled the lever for a Ventura/Kwiatkowski Ticket.
The Governor indicated he'd offer the Veep position to former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney ...
... and I'd have been good to go with her also.
the only democratic candidate who polled higher with minorities than Bloomberg was Biden,
who has been sinking in the polls and results. While reality may never change the two in the video you posted, my guess is that in a head to head election Bloomberg would get more of the minority vote than Trump. But then, so would most democrat front runners.
The viral video...
The story:
As pointed out in the presentation in my comment above
Others claim a 15 - 20% detection would be enough to undo 'em.
Recent polling Strongly indicates The Don is approaching or has attained those levels of support.
That would NOT be reflected on the irrelevant graph as the latest info given is for 2016.
Also, the graph pertains only to Blacks.
The Don does better among other minorities - Notably Hispanics.
The Don's more favorably viewed by Blacks (and likely most minorities) than any 'Publican Prez/Prez candidate since Eisenhower.
Claiming this is NOT a significant shift in a crucial 'Crat base is ridiculous.
'Crats dismiss their own base(s) at their peril.
Ask Hildy how alienating Clinging Irredeemable Deplorable Blue Collar Rust Belt voters worked out
She's preparing for her '20 Encore Performance
The lighter side of things...if Bernie is a contender...at least he is honest and wanting the ignored American public to count...and to be heard and represented...no corporate sponsors...that is a feat in itself...
IGNORE THIS GUY --
Then get a a Comfort Animal, load up on crayons & Play-Doh® and reserve a Safe Space for November ...
A fair government is all that is wanted...after all...Make America Great Again...was whos slogan?...so the perception of the have nots was there to begin with...
Fair to say immigrants buckled down and gave their kids a good post secondary education and the hope to do better when...but some just thought white privilage would last forever...good question...but education for most is not affordable...so why not even the odds out...good for all...
But he's NOT the same Bern that was being Felt four years ago.
Compared to his '16 New Hampshire win, he's lost considerable ground.
Demographics -
His strong supporters, Young/Millennials - 19% of '16 voters ... in '20 - '15%
Among Self-identified INDEPENENTS ...
In '16 - 79% of 'em Felt The Bern
In '20 - only 29%
True.
It was a two way race in '16 and there were more options this time 'round, but it may be that '16 SHOULD'VE been The You Of The Bern.
The DNC took him off at the knees and now his time may be past.
No do overs.
Being smear-free relative to The Don isn't enough.
Time waits for no man & opportunity knocks once.
You're putting me on, right?
The Identity Politics of the Regressive, Bigoteer, Illiberal Control Left are ALL ABOUT Victimhood - Victim Points assigned to one's Victim Group.
How can you not know these things
Whatever.
This will bring you up to speed ...
Opportunity may not be so persistent regarding The Bern Prez aspirations.
It will be interesting to see, who he picks as running mate.
I hope it will be Warren, as she would make an excellent president too.
I know who you hope.....Tulsi.
The Don would prevail if Bern had Wonder Woman on the ticket.
Even if he IS smear-free.
A socialist can win...look at American history...
True.
Who would've picked The Don a mere four years ago
Why get a Veep that'd be like dragging an anchor?
Trudeau is hot too...
I doubt Trump TV would be unbiased...formerly known as Fox News...lol...
Let's not forget that the DNC CHANGED their own rules(regarding number of individual donors required per candidate) JUST so Bloomberg could get a seat(or a box
Socialist Bernie(the king of small donations) vs Billionaire Bloomberg(who came in late to the race and basically seems to be trying to buy his way to the nomination)
"Ah, but don't you believe them."
However said said.....the big plans for free this and that are in the neighborhood of 114 trillion per year. Who's going to buy those numbers, daisies?
Warren is out for that reason alone. Bernie will make for a good scare for the DNC...the Bloom is rising and Biden is still favored by Perez and Co.
None of them has a shot at the brass ring.
