OP
Probably because the candidates themselves are hounding them to start posting the results.

Unless the partial results they release first end up exactly matching the final, total results, they'll be accused of trying to skew media coverage.

It's 5 pm everyday.
Given my opinion of the impact of the Iowa Caucus, I'm hoping it's 5 pm on December 1st.

Just wait until you are in the 90's. Why put out numbers that will change quickly?
Compounding the error.

(22,458 posts)5. Is this before or after Biden's lawyers review the results?
IMO, they should release numbers to the public, and then hash it out with Joes lawyers.

(314 posts)7. At this point the only just response it to have all the results in.
50% would be a travesty.
Bad move.

All eyes are now on NH and on DC.
Many said that: the winner of IA is the eventual nominee. Remember nominee Gephardt?
But now everyone can win NH.
