Sanders wins, Pete over-performs and Klobuchar gets a new lease on (electoral) life

With >85% reporting it’s Sanders’ night in New Hampshire. Unclear how much of the internecine shadecraft so extensively reported between the Sanders and Buttigieg camps are representative long-term, nationally (and minus Twitter) ; also unclear how much of the current bad feeling will matter beyond the Convention.

Klobuchar’s NH results are the most interesting tonight. Klobuchar outperformed most estimates set for Warren, who — while beating Biden– according to polling was slated to finish two spots ahead of Klobuchar. She really is the unsung winner of the primary tonight and I suspect that will be a story in the coming days.

    addendum: it seems in 2016, <250K votes were cast in the NH Democratic primary; with 91% of precincts now reporting, it seems that the total votes cast in this year's Democraticic primary could easily top 300K votes. That seems like a fair increase of interest in who will be the nominee this November.
