Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Anatomy of a debacle: Biden supporters saw it coming, and it came
More than a dozen volunteers in New Hampshire told Yahoo News they didn’t expect the former vice president to win the primary. Some hoped for second place or at least third. Instead, the onetime front runner of the Democratic primary captured less than 9% of the vote. He was fourth in Iowa, now fifth in New Hampshire.
Biden’s volunteers don’t view his subpar performances so far as a symptom of a flawed candidate. They echo the talking points from Biden and his surrogates: It’s impossible to win New Hampshire with neighboring senators in the race. He will do better in more diverse states. The first two states are just small parts of a much longer marathon.
In the week leading up to the primary, Biden conceded the state and downplayed its importance to the rest of the race.
Former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., finished in second and third place in New Hampshire after Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont — muddling the idea that Biden didn’t do well because the state favors neighboring politicians. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., placed fourth, just above Biden.
About 150 people showed up to Biden’s primary night event in Nashua. He spoke via live stream to a subdued crowd that paled in comparison to the jubilant celebrations for Sanders and Buttigieg. Biden left the state hours before polls closed and headed to South Carolina, where he’s hoping for support from black voters. His mention of black and Latino voters received lukewarm applause from the audience.
