Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Let's review the Iowa Caucus process...
You need 15% of attendees to be "viable"; if your candidate doesn't have 15%, you can select another candidate.
Right now, Biden, Sanders, Buttigieg and Warren appear to be viable.
Klobuchar, Steyer, Yang and Gabbard are not. Where do their votes go in the second round?
I'd say Klobuchar divides 2/1 between Biden and Buttigieg; Yang divides 2/1 between Warren and Sanders; Steyer divides 1/1 between Biden and Buttigieg; and Gabbard goes all in for Sanders.
If I were to vote in a presidentialprimary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
